A Few Blooms Hanging Out

A few blooms are hanging around and many more are on the way.

Verbena

Begonia

Mandevilla

Salvia

Pansy

Penta

I wish there was smellavision 'cause this smells heavenly. There are little tangerine's all over the plant.

I can't believe the fruit on the little plum tree. The tree was naked when it was planted about 6 weeks ago and it is growing so well.

Can you see the blueberries. Loaded. 

I am puzzled by the peach tree. The little peaches are dying before they even get a good start.

 Look at them on the ground. The tree has been fertilized and new soil added. The tree is healthier than it's ever been. Maybe some will 'hang out' and ripen.

I live on roly poly avenue and all the roly poly's live at my house. I've never seen so many in one place like I have. They are harmless as far as I know but I think they are munching on plants. From what I've read my place is just right for them to breed in damp places and under things. So I guess I'll just live with them.

When I was a little girl we would gather up as many as we could find and put them all in a jar and watch them crawl around. Loved watching them roll into a ball and we'd scoot them across the room. Fun times.



Hope you all have a great weekend and a blessed Easter.

Bloomin' Tuesday

It's Bloomin Tuesday ya'll. So glad to see Jean getting us going this year with some lovely blooms. Especially good since so many of us have been enjoying an early spring.

Couldn't ask for a prettier weekend. Blue skies - temps around 80 - light breeze - low humidity - it was just right. Hope you had a nice weekend too. I couldn't help but to get outside and enjoy the weather and my gardens.

Mandevilla.

 Dianthus.

Verbena.

I love these tiny little triple blooms on the daffodils. This is the last of the daffs to bloom.

Spirea - we call it bridal wreath.

My favorite azalea. This one blooms after all the others have lost their flowers. The shrub is loaded with buds.

Worked on this bed a little more. Looks like a half a dog bone. Maybe I should keep the shape and call it Buddy's garden. LOL

This lonely little geranium. More will be joining this baby soon.

Moss Rose. Love these hardy little plants.

We bought a tangerine tree. It is named Dandy Tangerine. It is loaded with little fruit already.

This is what the weekend and today looks like. Beautiful and pleasant. This is why I like living on the Gulf Coast of Alabama.



Hope you all have a fabulous day.

PS My mother will be in surgery in the morning. Please keep her in your prayers.
