A brief update: despite the fact that I can't think straight most of the time, and there are definitely not enough hours in the day in which to prepare for class, and drive kids around, I have managed to extend the extremely slow growing flower bed out front as far as the corner- a minor triumph, for which my back is paying the price. Oh well.
And I am very very pleased to report that the Datura that I planted out there is COVERED in buds,one of which will open very soon I think. Yippee.
In the back everything is brilliantly green and everything is blooming like crazy.
I still love the bulbine (and still think it is a weird name)
The sky flower is full of dangling purple-blue jewels.
And after the rain everything just sparkles.The ruellia is amazing by the house. Looking our the back living room window, the garden is seen through a purple curtain of flowers.
Sun + flowers = Cathy's happiness
Even the Cross vine is covered in blooms, and really, doesn't look cross at all.
So you withhold from us for weeks and weeks (resulting in, I might add, your being zapped from my blog feed) ... and then you drop this tasty morsel in our laps, reminding us of how much we've been missing. I'll work from the bottom up: zebra grass -- that's a new one on me, and it's gorgeous; ruellia -- interesting with the dark splotches on the petals -- either mine don't have them or (more likely) I've just never noticed; sky flower -- why why why is yours blooming and mine isn't??? Maybe I should just dig mine up and let it go live with you. Seriously, this rainy fall has definitely given us a second spring -- and I'm glad it's prompted you to turn your attentions from your young charges and back to the garden for a bit.
ReplyDeleteBulbine is one of our favorite plants to use in our designs!

Hi everyone,I’m so excited my husband is back after he left me for another woman. My husband was having an affair with a co-worker and i love my husband so much but he was cheating on me with his co-worker and this girl i think she use witchcraft or black magic on my husband to make him hate me and this was so critical and uncalled-for, I cry all day and night for God to send me a helper to bring back my husband! I was really upset and I needed help, so I searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr.Wealthy can help get an ex-boyfriend back fast. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and I did it, then he did a love spell for me. 22hours later, my husband really called me and told me that he missed me so much, Oh My God! I was so happy, and today I am happy with my man again and we are joyfully living together and I thank the powerful spell caster Dr.Wealthy, he is so powerful and I decided to share my story here. if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Wealthy for help now..Here’s his email, wealthylovespell@gmail.com
