candela, it seems as if the cold winter did not affect your plant's blooming ability in the least bit.
Your Lime Zinger is bigger than the mother plant right now.
Here is one of your babies (thanks).

Rj, you have a few new plants taken on April 5th, that I have not seen before like the yellow bell type one.
I will borrow from your cleaver trellis ideas as needed around here, I do love vines too.

Red Oak, TX

LouisianaDale, WELCOME
I love the bright colors of your Tequila Sunrise, thanks for sharing.
What other beauties are you growing in your New Iberia garden?

Houston, TX(Zone 9a)

Yes Rita, Wayne gave that to me last week for helping him at another open gardens day. I have to ask him what it is as we unloaded them straight from the wholesaler without tags . I'm planning to ask him what it is this weekend.

RJ. I enjoyed reading your blog concerning the trellis's. Very creative!

Thank's much

We can grow just about anything here, especially tropicals. I was thinking of moving to Austin, Texas but I don't know if I'd be able to dig a pond there because the ground is mostly rock. Not to mention the lack of rain. Although, it is beautiful in Round Rock so............I could change my mind eventually. I noticed that you have lots of beautiful flowers. Do you grow tropicals too?

Sunshinesw........that red and white amaryllis in that pic, is that a Pasadena? It is beautiful. I just checked out a company that sells amaryllis, John Scheepers Dutch Flower Bulbs, and can't wait to order from them. So many that I want.
