Well I finally took some photos yesterday of a few things. This first one I can't believe. My Saucer Magnolia is blooming and it is full of foliage!! Usually it blooms before the leaves appear.

Cannas and ironweed...to the right is a small wahoo tree, doing well this year.

The last is not blooms but still excited me to see. Two Giant Swallowtails, the female trying her best to ignore the young male while she deposits eggs on my Hercules Club. Yesterday was my first siteing of the GSTs that were so prolific in years past.
