Well, when the high yesterday was 86F, I think you can safely say the deep south has slithered into early summer. Thought I would start a thread so the northerners could see into their future and we can see what's happening in Marie's garden. =)

This one's Oxalis brasiliensis. I would think this would do much better in a pot, but I was in a hurry last fall and just put it by the walk to the front door hoping it would survive the deep mulch necessary for weed suppression. I have to admit I'm a closet Oxalis lover...I really love the South African species, but am still on the learning curve with them. I have probably single-handedly killed more of them than any one person on the planet. The South American species seem to do rather well for me.
