| I was just looking back at my pictures from 2010 and 2011 - I forgot how it all looked! I'm so happy I have this thread! It's fun to see how my flower garden has morphed over the last couple of seasons.
Since my mom-in-law, Pammy, planted some stuff in October 2011, I'm curious to see what she did. I know she planted Crocuses (is that the right spelling?), Daffodils, and the Iris bulbs that Jenn split from her garden, and some other bulb that I can't remember the name. I have no idea where she put it all! So it'll be a surprise as they pop up!
Stay tuned for pictures of what's popping out of the ground!.... _________________ |

| Yes! That's it! Hyacinth! You SO smart! So I'll a handful of pansies that survived my hubby (LOL!), crocus, hyacinth, iris and daffodils...oh! and around the base of the trees, hopefully the lillies (star gazers, i think) will come back, and off to the side, day lillies. Hopefully the balloon flowers will come back too.... _________________ |

| Beautiful! Love the crocus especially! I hope your stargazers come back, they're my favorites of the Asiatic lilies. _________________ |

| I love flowers but can't seem to get in to gardening. Wish I could but I just go out there and start digging and get so overwhelmed with how much work there is to do and give up and have a drink...lol! I will just live vicariously through you all! |

LOL! I'm not all that into gardening either - I love to have flowers, but don't like digging in the dirt. I just buy the stuff. Luckily, hubby and Pammy (MIL) loves gardening so I just say what kind of flowers I like, and they have at it. Pammy is more artistic when gardening, and I think I am going to pleasantly surprised as the plants and flowers start to come in. _________________ |

| Oh my gosh, so pretty! Forgive me if you've said this before, but what are those bushes you have in the back there that are currently void of leaves? _________________ |

Burning bushes. The leaves start out green, and by Fall, they 'burn' and turn deep red. _________________ |

Yes, Jenn has a big one on the right side of her house if you're facing the house from the street. I don't want mine to get that big, but I wish it was more full. A friend had some that were really full and when it burned it was so pretty! _________________ |

| So the leaves fall off of your burning bushes in the winter? Here in VA, ours just get kind of nasty looking (kind or a red + green = brown look) all winter until they green up in the spring.
Looking good, Claudia! I need to update my thread. I think I could have watched my plants actually growing today. There is so much more growth on them now than first thing this morning! |

I wish I could take credit, but last Fall, hubby's mom came and planted the bulbs and mixed in compost in the entire retaining wall which I think, with the early Spring, made everything come in healthy! Hubby maintains the front and backyard. I just water my herb garden! _________________ |
