Memories of Mother's Day and my mother Pauline
Comments (8)Yes, Permanent Wave is indeed unique in its leaf display, and bloom. It becomes quite showy and large with age. It was a seedling that Mom gave away to a close friend, Jim Langhammer of Royal Oak (thanks Jim for all the garden memories!) who several years later brought it back to her and said it was worthy of registration and a neat name, even though it was all green. She was not a fan of all green hosta unless they had uniqueness. After receiving the plant back into her garden, she wracked her brain (and mine!)for a suitable name. Mom was getting her Saturday hair fixed and as she sat under the hair dryer at the hair salon, her eyes fell on a poster for selling some "Permanent Wave", and thus the name was found. John Kulpa of course is a fantastic hosta hybridizer in his own right - but Whirlwind was a chance find in the trade. There has been a writeup on it and its progeny recently in the AHS Hosta Journal. Thanks, John for the great plants! Bruce...See MoreThis is what I did for my mom for mothers day
Comments (8)Very pretty, looks like you and your Mom have something going there! Do you happen to know what the orange plant poking through the fence is? And that orangy red rose on the fence (last photo) is just gorgeous. I would like to know about that rose, too. The lilies too are scrumptious!...See MoreMother's Day pics: You have one to share?
Comments (4)Went to the local cafe for terrific lunch (noon meal), which son in law paid for--had total of 13. Then came home, granddaugher's two husbands responded to field fire, came back and had bar b que. Had lots of fun watching 4 little ones play outside, and wash down the plastic furniture with soap and water!!!! No pictures, but just fun....See MoreBelated Mother's Day surprise, need advice please
Comments (146)First time poster on this thread. I'm imagining a little video montage of the kitchen remodel and big reveal, sprinkled with some of the posts here...it would make a great memory book! GO MORTARMIXER! :-) Btw, we have a 3-can lazy susan trash cabinet. No smell if we do as above posters recommend - empty regularly. Often, after I empty, I leave the door open to air out overnight. On trash and recycle day, I take out all 3 bins and wipe up the bottom, sides, underside of counter with the h2o / alcohol spray and paper towel. Easy Peezy....See MoreAnnie Deighnaugh
