Yeah, well I have sleet and flurries outside!

Living somewhere warm certainly has perks...like a year-round growing season.

Yeah yeah, keep bragging. It's a balmy 37 right now.

Celsius?

Do I sound like a Canadian?

The grass is growing and the dandelions haven't died, so should be fine.

Yes. I was disparagingly implying that you're canadian.
Grass?! Ugh, I hate that insidious weed!

I'll accept your insult. Really about 10 miles east of Southern Ontario anyway...and lived in Minnesota...

Better go watch hockey now.

Mine didn't bloom this year :-( maybe I need a soil change.

Or just more water. Some of ours that are in really shitty clay crap soil do the best of all - because a drainage issue causes that section of garden to get quite a bit of water. I'll post the blooms from that one when they finally get around to opening. The peach tree right by there is going completely crazy with blooms this year!

Gorgeous. I miss middle_path. Have you seen him anywhere?

Not even close. Last night was one of the rare occasions that I drink whiskey. I slept like a baby. A drunk baby.

thats a muscular forearm sailor!

Whoah! They come in different colors!

We've infested our gardens with the red ones. I'll need to post some pics when they finally get around to opening; it's been sporadically winter-ish again lately and they're sleeping in or something.

[ - ] PeckerwoodPerry [op] 1 point 2 yearsApr 25, 2023 16:55:07 ago (+1/-0)

Mine are either like this, or white with a red star burst. They get bigger every year too.

[ - ] lord_nougat 1 point 2 yearsApr 25, 2023 17:08:21 ago (+1/-0)

Yeah, ours sound more like the latter, and they too get bigger every year along with the bromeliad that we didn't even expect to survive, or ever look the way we did when we bought it. That thing has a big impossible looking red white and blue bloom.
