Hoya a-blooming

My hoya is a-blooming. Wanna see? Well, of course you do.

What's that you say? You don't know what a hoya is? Not surprising if you don't live in the tropics. Here, I'll show you.

Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Spring Garden tour

Let's go with a garden tour for this nearly wordless Wednesday, shall we?

I think I've already shown you my saucer Magnolias--or it may have been to my facebook pals. Not gonna tell you again to join me there, so fagedabudit!

The Odd and Unusual

If you wish to see the odd and unusual --I'm speaking of the plants, of course-- you really ought to try going to a botanical garden, especially one with a year-round greenhouse or conservatory.

Jack, don't you come back no mo'

That cad, that scoundrel, that evil menace Jack Frost decided to pay us a visit and all I can say is, Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back no mo', no mo', no mo', no mo'

.

Frost on the Black-eyed Susans? Heck no!

This was two days before our frost free date! Doesn't he know this??? Apparently not.

Speaking of Sprouting seeds...

Were we speaking of sprouting seeds? Someone must have been...don't quite recall who, but it'll come to me.*

The first new sprouts of the season! Woo-hoo!

Another mystery plant---several of them!

By gosh, by golly, I have another mystery plant to tell you about and here t'is.

What's that you say? Will I ever learn? Oh, I profoundly doubt it!

Whispering Beech Tree

Ordinarily, my beech tree does not go around whispering.

Whispering beech tree? Surely, you jest!

The Great Seed Give-away

Recall if you will when I complained about having too many seeds. Well, as it turns out, I was right! No, not about having too many. There is no such things as too many seeds...which explains the great seed give-away.

What is the Great Seed Give-Away? Glad you asked!

Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Saucer Magnolias

I thought I'd show you my saucer magnolia while in bloom.

Too many seeds

Hundreds and hundreds of potential plants

Don't suppose you ever thought you'd hear me say that I have too many seeds, but ho-and-behold I do indeed have way too many seeds. Don't believe me? Come, let me show you.
