Hi gardeners...are any of you spending as much time as I am on your gardens? I have been having a blast!


Here is a new clay pot I adore.








I have a Mexican plant called agave maculata that is so colorful. The leaves are green with purple splotches. It decided to form a stalk that grew over 3 weeks and finally flowered!













Please post lots of photos of your gardens and I really like to see the flowers y'all have.

Calla Lillie in full bloom, ranunculas, roses just starting to push and lots of other flowers. I plant for color and the birds.

Don Jorge, how beautiful! Oh my gosh. THANKS SO MUCH!!

I have nothing to compare to Don Jorge. Cala Lilies don’t do well in the salt winds of Asuncion.
