Almost Spring (a short poem)
Comments (5)Went to a local lake the other day and saw a pair of Pelicans, Mallards, Mergansers, about 40 Canada Geese, Wood ducks, Cormorants, lots of Gulls and some domestic Ducks and Geese that People had dropped off. People were feeding them bread and getting quite an audience. Like your poem Lilo guess spring is in the air, You will likely see the Canada geese flying over or perhaps stopping for a bit soon.

Comments (2)I was there from 2:30 - close... Bought two carts full (and I'm going back on Sunday...) I bought some of everything... assorted perennials, several "natives", two water plants, a southern lilac (it's bushy with tiny leaves and heavenly scented flowers), several red flowering tabacco, evergreen clematis, some cherry tomatoes, a few "bog" plants, some other flowering shrubs (including 4 different buddlieas) and numerous other plants. I wanted a tri-color Japanese Maple, but they didn't have any this year. Got to go back this weekend - "just in case"! Smiles to all... Meadow Lark...See MoreFirst blooms 2010
Comments (6)Memphis Magic and X-rated mini are my favs! The mini is my first choice. Love the colors. How big is that bloom? Thanks! Carol...See MoreSpring almost over....
Comments (21)I have a plastic humidity dome over it bob does that work? I did add some perlite into the peats hope it’s ok? It’s been almost two weeks but so far I have yet to see bud growth on any of them! I believe I saw your picture of all your tools bob but didn’t specify what brand of knife you use? I used a very sharp kitchen knife for all my grafts so far can’t say it’s worked very well but it’ll do for now Until I can get a new one!...See Morebrightstar123
