Final Call for 15 characters
Comments (14)Nice phone shot Kate. I do like this deeper mauvy/lavender color. I wondered about the difference in colors on the edge of yours, so glad you explained it..........Kay: Reindeer Antlers is a darker red then I expected. Glowing In The Wind in particular appealed to me. It's not one of my fancy ones, as I buy for color first, but I think it will make an impact in the collection if it proves winter hardy..........Thanks Nancy for the comment.....Julia: We will see what the future holds here for SC Easy Rider. It's a smaller bloom at about 5 inches and the color isn't as dynamic as some of the others, but it seemed to bloom quite a bit. However, I have serious space constraints so it will have to earn it's keep to stay. Apparently for you it didn't.......... Maryl...See MoreScents smells odors (to abide by the 15 characters rule)
Comments (45)I am a bit on the fence with this one........I can see a validity in both viewpoints :-) The detergent and cleaning product aisle at the grocery store does bother me and I have to circle widely around places like Yankee Candles or Bath and Body Works at the mall to avoid the smell (IMO, they reek!!). But I do not mind and usually enjoy a light scent on both males and females - a mild floral or citrus-based or spicy scent is IMO very pleasant and sure as heck beats BO, which I seem to encounter just as often. Or someone reeking of garlic, which seems to emanate out of their pores as well as their breath!! I typically wear a scent as well but it is eau de toilette, not perfume, so quite dilute and light. I am constantly getting compliments on it, so it must be appealing to a lot of people :-) I do not wear it if visiting a medical office or in a confined space (movie theaters, lectures, etc). And when visiting my hair dresser, as she does not like scents. That surprises me as she has to deal with some pretty nasty scents, like perm neutralizing solution!! And I like scent inside my house......but it has to be the right scent :-) I can't tolerate some flowers close up - oriental lilies and paperwhites for sure. But anything lemon or citrus scented is fine and lemon verbena or vervaine is my first choice for any sort of scented product. But I just have issues with anyone dictating my personal choices. On this and many other issues....See MoreVille de Lyon must have 15 characters
Comments (22)Alana, your pics look like others I've seen of Ville de Lyon. It's really beautiful. I have one I bought as a bare root in a bag at Walmart a year or two ago. It hasn't bloomed yet but I'm really looking forward to it. From what I read it's very vigorous. At least I hope it's Ville de Lyon ...they called it " City of Lyon." Same color bloom on the package. Niobe is one I had some years ago and it seemed much darker...a very deep, burgundy red. Have a new one coming in from Brushwood soon. Your picture is beautiful, Gardengal....See MoreHi I'm April ("Title must have at least 15 characters")
Comments (76)Thank you...your kindness overwhelms. you know, I did go to my beloved Jerusalem there, for just a few days, the only thing I truly did for myself only, don't remember whether I mentioned that..went in August, very spontaneously...and I had this very nice very extravert type of a taxi driver to take me there..and very soon he chatted out of me all the story.. So he says, at some point: -ok I understand what do you want for your Mother..and I understand about your brother..and I understand about the husband and kids. That, I get it -what you worry about regarding them all. But how do you see your life? YOURS? And I sat there and I didn't know what to answer him. And I still don't. I still think "me? what me?" then I think "what life?" then I think "let me have this life first". then I'll try to see what I can see.. Maybe I'll edit that later btw. Doesn't make any sense when I try to read it..Except for the first sentence of course....See Morelittlebug zone 5 Missouri
