Very Pretty ALba,, Your water flowers are gorgeous! I always enjoy seeing your blooms,, My vinca's are just now peeking back thru the ground!

Holly Cow there all gorgeous -- sure does help to be in a flower friendly environment. I am looking out the window at a snow storm again this weekend and I cant see across the road for white snow. If I plant here by may 24th long weekend it might even be too soon. MyBlueWaterLily is my favorite so far along with this one MyWaterHyacinth...

Sheri_ thanks

nml Alba: such very nice flowers you have---

My orange tree is just starting to bloom!My pea plants are currently in full bloom as well!Seems like I'm gonna have a lot of peas.

Show us orange blossoms.....Never seen any. Take a very close up of them. The fragrace too..LOL
Kidding.

I've seen scilla, daffs, and some tulips blooming this morning. Everything is coming out now, the daylilies, my arum italicum, alliums, grape hyacinths, the buds are breaking on the forsythias and lilacs

Dodge---until Enrique can get back to you I am posting my orange tree blossoms.
so now you can say you have seen orange blossoms

my tree is planted in a pot and will stay so because of the IL weather. I so wish they could wait to bloom until I could get them outside--

Junigirl .

they are awesome.
Waxy like leaves .

Nor
Yours are beautiful Portula.

Susydaze...............I want some double seeds if you have any, just some to start..

barb

Pretty Carol!

Here's mine today:



My deciduous azalea---each year I think it's dead and each year it keeps coming back....Every Azalea I've ever planted in my yard has died except for this one.

Thanks that is beautiful.

Neat lil buggers.. :ding:

Your season is further ahead of outs.

I heard that Calgary was getting pounded with one storm after another. Hoping it's soon over for you as well.




I'm so glad I get to see all those pretty flowers and plants, makes my day.

guess what I saw yesterday at the Garden Center???
Hosta's that can be planted in the SUN----YES!!!! for sure!!!!
the 'June Hosta' said---sun to partial shade----Carol is going to own 1 or 2 --YES!!!! :wink:

happy happy!!!!!

What color were they junigirl?

I have some germinated from seeds, wonder what they will be????

the "june Hosta" was a dark green---the other one who's name I do not remember was varigated---I want to plant some out in the backyard---& it faces west--I w ill be an old old lady before I have to even start to worry about shade--

Should I laugh or cry??

well if you have a sence of humor,you should laugh-

if you would come & see my old home and yard---you might cry----

I got you beat....I have a very old clunker house and I do like it .
More room than most modern homes.. And I have land with it .
We don't complain.. We like living with frogs and air. LOL

I was once called a Hermit , the way I live..

LOL

yes yo udo have me beat. we had 5 acres in the middle of 4 fields. we had a home built in 1914 with an upstairs and an attic for storage, but just a cellar for the sump pump, the furnace and the hot water heater. (3 BR--1 bath, with washer/dryer on a closed in porch)

now I have 1/2 acre that used to be a field. a house built in 2004 with a full basement and an attached garage. I have 3 BR and 2 baths---BUT i h ave a converted field for a yard and my rooms are smaller that at the farm. Thing is how it all is set up makes it much easier to entertain people.---

I DO miss my attic and my yard though

We live in town for 9 months . ANd neither one of us could stand it.
Landlord was so nosy.......

However it was so boring living upstairs only.

Made us make up our minds fast......Get out of town.
I have 4 rooms down . 4 up plus bath, attic and full basement. concrete but not new and dreamy.......

I have seen worse. Lotza folks like my house.
Oak floors downstairs with oak wrap around steps banister up. Oak steps.

Depends what one enjoys.

We could sell our place 2maro if we wanted to.

this is not new & dreamy, dodge---just a house that happens to be new---not grand by any measure---1500 sq feet--the farm house was 1800 sq ft.

i know you could sell your home tomorrow---we sold ours 3 times before somebody actually got it.---everyone wanted it, no one wanted to actually buy it.

I miss my home but Rod thought us moving was best, so that is what we did.
"town" is only 1,000 people. and the yardsa er still nice sized so you are not living right on top of everyone like in the BIg cities.--i am in no sub division either, just on a dead end road, towards the end of town

JunieGirl..wish u all d best with d new house....

Thanx everyone for your encouraging comments....n here's a pic of my Mango.... itz huge! Well dunno if i can post it here coz itz not a bloom....



....n my English friends with it....

gosh, we don't see mangos that large here. Will it be extra sweet?

Hi Sheri.... this is d tree's first fruit.... haven't tried eating it yet...we do hope itz also big on sweetness...not just in size....

....n some more non-bloomers...my caladiums growing in between planters/flower pots....





Have a nice day everyone..!

My gosh are they huge mangos and caladiums..........I love that.. If only my cala would just stay.......
Gosh you must have beautiful gardens there and friends......Were all English by speech .Ha ha

Thanks Nor for sharing with us Other Englishes.. PS I am POLISH..LOL

Bad polish...

WOW that's on HUGE mango!!! Nice caladiums too!

Here are the first of my yellow tulips in bloom yesterday - gotta love my yellow!



BUT... why is it almost every PINK tulip that I buy as bulbs grows RED in my gardens??? Is it because I buy them at lower priced stores and they don't get in the right bulbs for the packaging??? Or is it something in my soil? I just do not get it, and I do NOT DO RED flowers!!!

They are pretty tho.............
I can see yellow peeking out of mine.. None in bloom yet.....

Very nice.
My daffys was to have pink centers and all I see is Orange......SO were both in the same ship.......
Sunk...........
