I didn't know she could look that beautiful. Thanks for sharing that with us. It's a gift to have some roses inside I think. Sometimes I take some fragrance roses to a lady that runs a storage yard where we used to have a boat. She lives there all alone and has no plants there except for a few houseplants in the office and in her trailer. It makes her so happy when I bring roses on my way to somewhere.

What I won't do for my friends. Ok Lucy you can pinch John's butt next time you come over, lol. Eloise we were really stressing out and fighting a lot when we first started building the greenhouse because he didn't know what he was doing and wouldn't listen to me and we kept having to go back and redo things the way I tried to get him to do it in the beginning and it caused quite a bit of unhappiness to be mad at each other and stressed out all the time. Its all good now. Still don't know how I am going to fix the one spot in the greenhouse he didn't listen to me about but I will figure out something, lol. Kylie it won't hurt to make an old fellow happy as long as he doesn't pinch too hard, lol. Love you too. Jim the bites about to get good. Anybody wants to go fishing just say the word. We will pile in and go. I hope you get your new hull soon. I'll take you up on that flounder trip.

I certainly understand your feelings. It is tough when friends move away. But at least she will be back for part of the year. But Massachusetts isn't the other side of the world. Certainly you could take a quick trip for a weekend or so, right? That would help make up the time in between. That's what my friends and I do.

Cute! I like blue too, as my grandmother always decorated with all blue lights. The jingle bells are a nice touch. I want to see more jingle bells at Christmas! When I was little, we tied them into our shoe strings and drove our mother crazy tapping around the house. :) You could put five in a row hanging off the bottom, off to one side, and they would be like the clanger of the bell.

Siam now THAT would be a great picture. Of your Romeo helping you garden lol He looks like he is totally in love with you.

I can see why these things made you happy today and hope that you will see many many MANY happy days to come!!!!

Now what I REALLY want to get of my chest is the Canna Bloom in the 3rd picture. I am IN LOVE!!! oh my gosh I can not believe that there is a PINK Canna!!!!!
Naturally the coloration in the 4th picture is to die for.

Thank you Siam for sharing your happy day moments with us

Kasha thans, :)
Karyn, i have 63 varieties, and alot of my own hybrids. I try not to keep to many hybrids, so when i get something reallky nice i get rid of one that wasnt as good. I usually grow about 100 hybrids at a time and choose about 5 of so to keep.
Joyce, yes i know there is now tropicanna gold and tropicanna black. I iwsh i could get my hands on those, but unfortunately trinidad is limited :(
Lucy nope i havent named that pinkl and cream hybrid yet. If i get something really nicer i might have to get rid of it though. because of limited garden space.
