I decorated my front door with paper shamrocks. They make me smile every time I look at the door.

Happy St Patrick's day! Not doing anything today but recover from a work-related injury. I left work early yesterday and called in today. On light duty when I go back later this week. I've been sleeping most of the time, taking Flexeril knocks me out completely.

Add the 4 o'clocks to your cart. They are a lovely plant and I have seen dead jap beetles all over them. I have fewer jap beetles this year than I have ever had. I won't be without them now, not only for their pest patrol feature, but because they grow like a nice flowering shrub, and they just keep blooming. I had a weird thing happen, though. My seed package from Burpee Selects has pics of yellow and white flowers, and called them Butter and Sugar or something like that. I had strategically planted all the seedlings where I wanted the pastel yellow and white effect. Then they all bloomed fuschia. I was disappointed at first, but kept them around for beetle patrol. Now I am not hating the fuschia as much. Is this fuschia the color of the species? Has anyone ever gotten a different color? Should I tell Burpee about it? Vera, your pics are stunning as always.

Joseph, I would love to see this MG in person. I wonder how red it is in real life. Do you have "Love is Blue",( Shiruki ao')? That's about all I have to offer, unless I go through my extensive stash to find something worthy? :) Arum

Hello Surya - My impression is that the flower you have posted is similar to a SOH with a white tube and throat which is known as "Wine and Roses" or it could be either an "Akatsuki no Beni" or a "Heian Beni". The majority of SOH strains are known to be late bloomers , although there are some 'hard to find' earlier blooming strains. The Real SOH has an all red tube and throat and the only white visible would be from the stamens and pistil....consider yourself lucky if you can locate a strain with a solid colored tube. The majority of 'SOH' available these days is either pink or a reddish-pink... The real old fashioned red can be very hard to find and unfortunately advertising images cannot be relied upon.. Hope the info helps... Ron

I'm wearing Green Grass Stains on my knees! I've been working in my Flower Beds. LOL!

I'm actually shopping for more herbs. All I have is Chives, Basil and Thyme.

Spinach Salad for lunch! How's that for Green?

I am going to a St Patrick's Day tea at two o'clock in our Community room.

I'm authentically Irish but green is my least favorite color in clothes, so I don't have any. It is only 44Â° here but I think I will just wear Spring colors.

Another Irish girl here- no green yet. Today is our wedding anniversary so I will wear a bit of green later on. I did have a green wedding dress!

I'm wearing a green shirt and green pants. And I made shamrock sugar cookies with green icing. Oh, and my eyes are green!

As my dad would remind me regularly, when someone says, "Top of the morning to you," the reply is, "And the rest of the day to you!"

I actually forgot it was St. Pats day until I was already up and dressed...so no green. I don't plan on going anywhere today anyhow.

Happy anniversary to Trish and Bearcat too!!

Happy St. Patricks Day!!
