Stop and visit, talk all you want. pt 8
I was just getting ready to ask if you were ready for a new one! LOL
Marcy, I love the red and the yellow lilies. What are the yellow ones? They all look so pretty alongside your picket fence.
Well Marilyn, you asked too fast...can't think of the name. It will come to me in a while...lol. It is an old variety...hmmmm. Let me look for a better picture of them.
I love the dayllies in all their colors. I have some seeds I'm going to start soon. Are they picky from seed?
Celia, did you get your seeds yet?
I'm going to hobble out to the mailbox right now! LOL
BRB
OK! LOL
Marilyn....the yellow daylily is Hyperion...finally came to me!!!
Nope. No mail yet.
You and I were talking on the other thread and you mentiopned ghosts. I hear this funny sound behind me. Sort of a low breathy sound. I turn around fast, thinking...What the...?!?!?! ANd I see it's Monty in his basket, SNORING! Really startled me, hearing that! LOL
We have planted several daylilies that we dug up from a cousin's bed and also some that Kathy Ann from Judsonia gave me. I don't know what color any of them are going to be. I can hardly wait till spring and all the plants we put into our new flowerbeds start blooming. I have roses, and lilies and iris and Katy Blue Dwarfs and some other stuff I can't even remember and also a couple of hundred bulbs including tulips and daffodils. those should be the first to bloom--probably in February and March. For the lasagna beds in the back yard which are "cooking" now, I have all kinds of seeds that I plan to start in those little peat pots and have them ready to put out in late March or early April--depending on the weather.
I just put together a pot of home-made veg. beef soup. Y'all come on down if you want some! I think one of us ought to buy a private jet so we can send our private pilot out to pick everybody up on cold day like this and have our own private "round-up". Okay, who is volunteering to purchase that jet?
I' have to leave for work now!!! So busy reading and posting, I lost rtack of time!!! LOL
Gotta go NOW ! Bye!
ROTFLOL @ Celia! HE HE HE
HMMMMMMM a private jet-I need a Sugar Daddy! LOL
Bye Bye Deary!
Marcy, that is a beautiful photo! You are right--the brick do make the flowerbed look neater. What is the tall bush or shrub in the background? Thanks for the name of the yellow lily.
That's funny about the ghost, Celia! LOL
You thought of it Marilyn...so I say it should be YOU!!!! Hahahaa!!!
Mau, Shaun wants to know if a 4 seater Cesna would work? LOL
Marcy is right, you thought of it! HE HE HE
Yeah, Tammy, you get the sugar daddy and he can support all of us in the manner to which we would like to become accustomed! You have to tell him that all your DG friends are just like family and they go where you go! Now, that sounds like a real plan to me!!
Bye, Celia, talk to you later. Have a good day at work!
Sounds like y'all are gaining up on me. I'm too old for a sugar daddy--it will have to be one of you younger chicks. Just show him that photo of you above in the corset, Tammy! LOLOL
Oh..the tree? That is a Kousa dogwood. They bloom a little later than the regular dogwoods that grow wild around here in the woods. And then it gets red berries on it in the fall....plus the leaves turn a beautiful shade of dark red too. I love it!
I saw pics somewhere of your gardens, Marilyn. Yes....they were pretty and will be even prettier as they mature! I have so many gardens I can't even keep up!
OMG watching out for that sword while I am rolling on the floor laughing at Mau!
Bye Celia...don't work too hard! Yeah...me too...too old for a sugar daddy! Besides...I have one....LOL!!! I don't think he would buy me a plane though...especially since I can't even get him on a plane!
Ok, off searching for one now, wish me luck! HA HA HA
Geez I lost you all again. I cannot for the life of me keep up with you gals and I am not that old!!
I can never keep up either unless I am here at the time! LOL
Celia made us a new thread, Marie--glad you found us again! LOL do you know anyone who has a private jet we can use to get together? If you are "not that old", then maybe you should be the one to find the sugar daddy!! Between you and Tammy, one of you should be able to find us a jet.
Marcy, I was going to ask you if that was a dogwood because I thought I recognized the leaves.
Ok, I might kick myself for asking, but how old are you Marie? If you are younger, then it is up to you! LOL
No I am afraid I am not young enough for a sugar Daddy!! It is up to you Misty. Well my oldest is 21 and I am 18 years his senior!!
Doggone it anyway, pulling both my feet right out my mouth! LOL BUT, you are only 2 years older than me, so we should go together! HA HA HA
Not sure I could find one that would take my 5 kids and my serious addiction to plants and seeds. Then again I guess I could say they are some one elses's kids but there is no way to get rid of the addiction!
OMG way too funny! I have 3 kids, and all the flower addictions, but has to be part of the agreement! LOL
Marcy got me longing for some blooming flowers so I am going to post a couple of pics of some of my roses from this past season.
This is climbing Don Juan. We planted two of them--one on either side of the arbor. They don't have a lot of fragrance--at least I don't think they do, but DH says they smell like a rose to him. LOL They make big beautiful flowers and I can hardly wait until they get the arbor and side fences covered this next season. However, the thorns are HUGE so we really have to be careful when picking off leaves that might have black spot, etc.
Just beautiful, Mau!
The yellow rose in the background is Sunsprite--spells wonderful!! and the red rose in the foreground is Velvet Toreador--a beautiful dark red rose but no fragrance. The two roses on either end of the arbor fence are red knock-outs.
Back in a minute with some close-ups.
Wow that is beautiful!! I long for warm weather . Why is spring taking so long.????????
Thanks, Tammy. and while I am thinking about it--you had asked me in a post on the previous thread what we had planted against the fence. Nothing yet, except one climbing rose. We have put in a lasagna bed back there and it is "cooking" right now--Has newspapers, grass clippings, horse manure, dirt, and mulch--all of which was FREE plus we edged it with moss-covered rocks that we got from a piece of property we own in another county.
here's a pic of the lasagna bed:
WOW mau, looks great! Although I have never like moss, since it is my maiden name, yours looks beautiful! LOL
Thanks, too, Marie. The bed in the photo above is really heaped up now with all kinds of good stuff in it. I can hardly wait to get it planted out in the spring. I plan to make this bed my hummingbird and butterfly garden--there will be lots of flowering perennials in it that attract both hummers and butterflies.
Here's a collage of Velvet Toreador and Sunsprite.
IS IT SPRING YET???!!!!
