OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... LOL. This one is not mine! It was one of many I saw yesterday on my nursery rounds. I stopped the car and jumped out! I do have one that is at least 10 years old that is taller than my house. If I can get to it I will take a pic. It has been abused this year for I have pushed all my huge potted brugs up to it so I can't get near it. My big one will be taken down this winter and replaced with a Rosamond. I hope it is as frost hardy. The one in the pic is much prettier!

I was on the crape myrtle hunt yesteday. I am nuts over crape myrtles the last few years. I actually bought 3 standards and 3 bushes all in 5 gallon pots yesterday. I quietly dragged them out of my car and brought them one by one to the side gate that leads to the back yard. I was so thankful my DH did not come out and catch me. And then I picked up the hose and started watering in front. Soon I heard my DH open the sidegate to bring in the green garbage can. I DIED!!! BUSTED big time. But you know he never said a word to me when I went in. He is finally trained.

this one is mine!
