Jan and Eleanor - thanks for the update on Kassia. I was hoping she's just been busy.

Allison - what a great neighbor you are! My neighbors are also so good on this street. I'm sure your neighbor appreciates your kindness as much as I appreciate it here. Gardeners just hate to see plants stressed, huh? I do it here for my neighbors as well, but they aren't gone as much as I am! LOL

Anita - I'm shocked to see your reblooming iris blooming NOW! What a brave one he is! That seems really unusual, but you had the same thing happen last year! Go figure! Nice little Christmas treat - and I very much appreciate you adding to this thread with your photo! Very cool!

I shouldn't have posted so many pics the other day........I've run out of flowers - except for this "next phase" of the famous wild cotton. Celeste said she wanted to see the various color stages, so I'm doing my best. This one isn't terribly clear (sorry!) because the flower was blowing all around, but I think you can see the darker pink. Now, all I have left to get is the cotton boll when it forms.
