Topic: Flowers in bloom new pictures

Been doing some garden stuff today. Also banged my head on garden window, ouch! Lot of things are blooming now. I hope they are still around when we have the Grad party end of May!

Boy do I got snails everywhere esp. under the daisy type of plants. Trying to get the Tomatoes in today also!

Well here the pics are. If you have any flowers in your garden, share them too!

WOW!!! That's the prettiest flowers I have ever seen! I love the colors and the way they are arranged. Beautiful flower garden, I know your neighbors love you. I would! Thanks for the slideshow, it was beautiful.

So pretty!  I can't wait to get into my flower garden.  It is still too cold for me.

I have a huge pine tree that needs to be cut down.  :(   I think I will replace it with a Red Maple, Magnolia or Burning Bush?  Hmm Not sure.

Very Nice!

Nice love the dogwood, mom had those growing up n Texas! is that an orchid? ~~Bonk~~

They are called Angel Trumpets. Because of the cold they have to live in my basement during the winter and they spend the summer outside. A lot of people in California grow them and they can become almost like a small tree.~~sandy

So pretty!  Glad you are there and not here.  They would probably not make it if they were here.  We are suppose to have a good freeze tonight.  In fact, it is freezing as I type!  And it did last night too.  And wind!  I am so tired of wind!

Old timers are saying the wind will stop blowing when it rains.  When asked when it will rain.......answer is.......when the wind stops blowing.

Yep thats like my dad who would put his finger in the hair to see which way the wind was a blowing! I think if it came from South west or something it meant rain! ~~Bonk~~

My yard needs some work. It's like the first nice day you have you do not want to work in the yard though. Lisa P

My allergies are bad, I hire my not working 20 yr. old nephew to do the weed stuff for me!!~~Bonk~
