I finally have some interest in gardening again! The greenhouse is completely full of my tubs of Brugmansia's, mini-roses which never stopped blooming since last spring (!) and three flats of Bulbine I made from one large plant, some pink prickly cactus.
I've germinated and transplanted into 4" pots Black Eyed Susan vine and some time today I have to transplant the seedlings of amaranth, (Love Lies Bleeding), Salvia 'Black and Blue,' S. coccinea, Texas Star Hibiscus and I'll have to look at what else germinated.
It actually rained here a bit yesterday and tomorrow I plan on starting to rake out and weed the front beds and get the bare root perennials I bought potted up. It was so dry that I lost my canna 'Tropicana' last summer. I did water it, but it was just never enough. This year the shade beds will get a bunch of ferns, native yellow columbine and I am moving the Mexican honeysuckle. That plant has not stopped blooming all summer and winter last year and even though hit with light frosts, continues now to bloom. I want that closer to where I can observe the hummingbirds.
Just rambling... Victoria
