Garden shots today!
« on: April 08, 2010, 06:22:59 PM »
1. oops to lens cover, but still a nice shot.
2. The wheelbarrow i almost threw out. Several of you said NO NO!  Looks good now.  It may be 100 yrs old!
3. a few agaves (maybe Aloes) that ask very little.
4. my killing from Craig's list a Helliconia ( I will try again) and the others are lavender Angels trumpet. Burgmensia. also she gave me many cuttings. All for $15.00 ! O0

You have a tropical paradise, Jerry!  All that's missing are the mai-tai's!

I love it Jerry, especially the first one.

It is a good thing you aren't visiting my part of Texas.  We are still brown and dead looking.

Thanks but hardly!  The photo is very flattering.

here is the wheelbarrow I forgot in first post.  I was about to give it away and you gals said "No way!"  I planted it as suggested.  It get's lots of comments.  It may be 100 years old too.

I just love the color of plants you picked.

My old wheelbarrow looks just like that without the cement.  It is full of native cactus.

That is one ugly wheelbarrow.  @O@

I'm getting insecure about how un-improved our gardens are here. Ah well,
Your visit is definately going to be the years' event.  :)

Hey girl, it took me 40 years to get it as it is now.
The photos are very flattering.
I look forward to seeing you all soon.
I planted a 4th one of these today, it is in a tub, but just think, in 80 years I will have this!
I am patient...  It is a Dragon Tree, Dracena draco.
