Hi Mekos ;-)

Morning all. Chilly here today, and we're all fogged in, and only about 35 degrees, and misty and almost raining. Our poor plants have to tolerate such extreme weather changes! lol And 2 days ago it was almost 90!
On another note, someone paid my subscription for another year! Can't believe there is someone out there who really wants to put up with me for a year, lol! Thanks, whoever you are!

I hear you with Mother nature Skell!! She plays tricks on us here too!! Snow one week...90 the next!! We have some strong plants up here!! That is great Skell someone paid you subscription, the dues fairy must be back!! It has been a beautiful weekend for the garden here this weekend...Keep it coming!!


John Boy, John Boy are you here????? Hello, Look what greeted me this am...Returning Rose is her name.
Hi ChelleI have been playing You tube..she has such a beautiful voice and so brave she is!!
Morning Miss Nettie!!
Who else is here?

Me, me - I am here!
Howdy all - anybody want to come over and pull weeds? With almost 6 inches of rain in two weeks, I have lost my plants - they are under the weeds somewhere. Guess I will spend the day hunting for my little pretties.

Everyone have a wonderful day - I am off to pull up little green invaders.

Well here is some exciting news about Courtney you guys..Last night she played at a big Memorial Day get together at the Buck Resort not too far from here. She was asked by a great local guy named Todd Pulse and he didn' tell us anything about the band members that would be there. So when we got there, we found out that the keyboard player was Alabama's keyboard player and that the drummer was Dolly Parton's drummer!! She has virtually no experience playing with a band but they came in behind her and it sounded awesome! I had a permanent smile on my face the whole night. But you won't believe it.. I FORGOT my camera.. I am so mad at myself... This nice couple that was there let me use their camera but I didn't get to record her until they called her back up by herself at intermission. When they email the videos to me, I will post on YouTube and share with you guys.. She sang 14 songs total last night and I have to say.. it was her best performance to date. ;-)
Have a good day everyone and I will come back later and post some garden pics maybe..

Very nice iris Robin. Does it rebloom in your area?

Yeay Mechelle!! We will be waiting to see!!
I dont know Mit it is the first year bloom but I will let you know!!

Hello Everyone. Sorry, I let my blood pressure run up and almost did me in but I'm better today. Been so upset, I think I forgot to take the meds. My head still hurts but at least I can see better.
Beautiful Iris Robin, I love the color. Yours are timed really good. Ours are finished and with you just getting blooms, we can enjoy them for a while longer.
Mechelle, Give Courtney a hug from me and I'm still waiting for our road trips!!!
Got me a blackberry and with a laptop, we'll be good to go. Don't let her forget about her #1 fan.
It's raining here today and says it will continue all the next week too. Forcast is for 7 days in a row-RAIN.
Got a plant blooming today , I think is called a shrimp plant, not sure but think so.

Miss Mekos.. I have been worried about you.. don't be letting stuff get you upset.. not worth it girl! And you better remember those meds!
She is going to be recording a demo real soon and I will share with anyone who'd like one. It's about to start coming down here too.. makes my internet slow :( Cute plant..

Hey guys, Hope all is well.. Miss seeing you all as often as I used to.. Here's a few blooms to share..

This is Amaryllis minerva and red border lilies

St Joseph's Lily ... Amaryllis Johnsonii

Hi Trish
I like your Amaryllis. Did you have a good season with your irises?
My irises have finished blooming. Soon I'll have to get the shovel out again. lol

This started out as my pink bed.. It has ended up pink and purple..

Hi Mitt... My iris bloomed beautifully.. I was so proud... I gave them a nice lil dose of fertilizer and hope the baby making starts right up lol...You really have some beauties... You have to get that list together of what you are going to have for sale.. Im sure you have some shoppers right here on this forum..

Im not sure what the name of this lily is but it sure did smell pretty..

Mixed lilies in bloom around hosta..

Hi peeps!

Mekos - glad to see you posting! Hope all is well.

huney - that first lily noid is stunning!

Robin - my Mom is here for 10 days from Maine, enjoying our hot weather!

Here's a JMG bloom I found this am. Got the seeds from Xeramtheum a while back. They are Kikyo Zaki that may have crossed with another - obviously this seed did. It has the size and shape of KZ, but it's not blue. It's pure white!

A side view so you can see how tiny the plant is! Imagine my surprise when I went out this am and saw the bloom!

Hmm I posted this somewhere this morning wonder where???
Meko...take your meds...or find an alternate method of controlling your blood pressure. You are important to me and I would like you to be as healthy as possible.


Mechelle She really has a beautiful voice.....Post the demo when you get it ok?

"Very nice iris Robin. Does it rebloom in your area?"
Thank you Mit, I dont know if it reblooms it is my first year seeing it bloom at all!!

Happy Memorial Day weekend all! I've been out for the weekend, but got to see all the kids and little "Livie". Trying to get my new kite up in the air, but there hasn't been much wind to speak of. Maybe this afternoon at the park.

Thank a veteran for all our Freedoms today!

Nettie - I have some daylilies that are getting ready to bloom but nothing yet. I sure wish they would hurry - I have no color around here!

Busy day today - I will try to get back on this evening.

Hi RRM, Enid and Lyco! Hope you all have a wonderful day ;-) And everyone else who happens to pop on today!

Beautiful bloom Mechelle.. dwarf canna

Thanks huney, yours is beautiful too.. Oh and Kelly, your white flower up there is gorgeous!

Hey Mitt don't forget to educate us on how to save seeds from iris and what the heck we are to do with them after we save them.

Maybe he will give us a little class!!
