Look how pretty. I went out this morning and it was in full bloom. Got some yellow tulips blooming too and azeleas. And my iris beds are filled with green leaf stems and looks like they will be a georgeous display a little later.
The one thing I was amazed at was the white bird of paradise that I left outside in ground in zone 7 remember, is green and survived. They can survive my zone. I composted and mulched around it before the first freeze and it survived and looks so good. I cut off most of the long shoots when I composted over it but it is about 2 foot tall right now. WooHoo!
(I'm sorta in shock I'm still able to get on here again, but my DIL helped me string a cable to get a better signal and it works better now.)
