How beautiful indeed. At first I thought it was Circus Solei(sp?). Doesn't the music remind you of HBO's Rome?

I saw it some years back in San Francisco. I "surprised" DH with the tickets. He kept grumbling that I was dragging him to some "horse show". LOL But when he saw what it was he really enjoyed it. It like Cirque du Soleil in that the first time is the most impressive.

I would like to go again. DH said once was enough for him but he is like that about most things.

I'm growing Red sheild for the 1st time this year.Its about 10 ft tall right now.I was told by my trader it would bloom about Nov for me& the picture she included shows pink flowers red centers.I also grow a roselle.same leaves,but are held different and it is setting buds now& will bloom in october.I useually top it at 2 ft and keep topped till july so it grows more like a round shrub.I didn't this year and have plans with bread ties on my belt loop to secure to fence.its starting to grow "wavey".when topping it it does seem to have alot more branches and a fuller plant. I grow castor beans.My reds i traded for didn't sprout,but was told they are the only short ones.I grew my greens this year,but have some pink veined& some carmine that have purpleish leaves and the stalk is deep purple.I'm in zone 8b TX and mine actually return& so do the seeds that fall off that I miss.I had a 21 ft plant last yr. grew in old compost pile that I moved and the bed was actually raised.The trunk was 9 in diameter& when I chopped it down.....it grew back to about 4 ft before frost got it.I couldn't even reach the seeds,but the seed was big like a red runner bean.

Rina, your Orgyalis is so pretty..Vivid orange. Your Kalanchoe must have been in full/direct sun. Mine has orange foliage but not as orange as yours. Okay, went outside..The perennial, whatever it may be has no fragrance..Leaf texture is rough, protrudes. Thankfully, no problems touching Kalanchoes. If so, I'd be in trouble. Have quite a few 'indoor' Kalanchoes. I also rubbed my finger and thumb over the Sage..It's VERY fragrant. Was going to mention, but didn't think it important at the time..probably isn't now either.lol. Actually, I bought two perennials at HD w/tags reading Euphorbia. The second had different colors. Unfortunately, it didn't make it through winter. Your E. Helena's Bush is gorgeous! Is it hardy? Your Sage looks similar to mine, only a LOT larger.. Height and leaf size. Is it planted in medium or full sun? It's supposed to grow tall, but for some reason, doesn't. This is the first year it's reached 8"..lol. Supposed to be 2-4' or taller. I think 104F summers halt growth too. Your plants look terrific. Toni

Have you seen any hummingbirds yet?

Finally saw a hummingbird this afternoon. I guess it's not that late but I was a little worried that I wouldn't have any this year. I also saw a Baltimore Oriole this afternoon. That's about a week earlier than last year. He went to one of my hummingbird feeders but I didn't see him on the Oriole feeder yet. I put orange slices in my dogwood tree a couple days ago but they're looking a little dry.

It's on my Instant Queue, but I haven't watched it yet. I like Kevin Spacey, and I heard the show is very good. I was telling someone about it, and I called the show "King of Spades." Hope he found it. LOL

Very similiar to the show in So Calif where you eat with your fingers and watch the show. It is amazing what can be done with horses.

Marie I have been to to both Cavalia and Medieval Times. My opinion is they entirely two different types of performance.

Cavalia is more about the bond between man and horse. Medieval Times is purely man riding horse. Other than a bit of passage in MT there is little similarity.

Cavalia is ethereal. Medieval Times is about action and kitschinees.

It's like comparing ballet to burlesque or an opera to a rock concert. Both are entertaining but nothing alike.

Thanks wildchild, could not think of the name in CA. and you are right it is different, but then it has been years since I was there. It is entertaining thought, and lots of fun especially if you are with a group.

I couldn't remember the name either. Had to Google "knights dinner buena park" LOL Been around 10 years since I was last there. I saw Cavalia 7 years ago. Apparently they were under a different ownership at the time. I haven't seen the recent shows.
