It's Almost June?

First of all, Happy Memorial Day to everyone!  Thank you to all that have served and are serving!

I can't believe it is almost June.  Where does the time go??? 

 I have not had a lot of time to post so I thought I would post a few pics of things I have snapped lately that I thought were pretty.  Hope you enjoy!!!  

 The bees have been busy - they seem to love the Greggs Mistflower.  The butterflies do as well, but the bees have been all over it!

The hummingbirds never disappoint.  They have been quite content all week with the Texas Betony.  

 The Mexican Flame Vine is bursting with blooms.  

I have always loved this vine- such bright happy flowers.

The hummingbirds are all over the place this week and I for one couldn't be happier.  Speaking of birds at the nursery…..  this little girl showed up the other day.  She was so sweet.  She must have been lost, she just appeared and walked around and hung out all day but was not there the next.  Hope she made it home.

Looks like Austin is going to get some rain this week- woo hoo!!!!!

Hope everyone has/had a safe and wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

April GBBD 2013

Happy GBBD April 2013!

It has been a cactus fest lately- they are blooming left and right!!

Such vibrant colors- pinks, yellows, reds....

The blooms are so big- that's what I love about them, but then, the little ones pack a lot of punch too- see below....

This one little cactus cracked me up- looks like it's a smiley face hahaha

He's all of 6 inches tall but a really heavy bloomer- every day this week had one to five blooms on him. 

I just was partial to the smiley face.  

The Texas Betony is blooming away.  I put some in the front bed and it is doing just fine blooming away.  Tough little guys that I think don't get a lot of attention but they are pretty.

The Helen Borcher Peaches have started blooming this week, well, I guess they started last week but didn't look photo ready until this week with all the wonderful rain we have had.  Yes, rain- we've gotten some this past week and it was fabulous!!!!

 The Icebergs continue to bloom away.

 The Spanish Lavender- oh the Spanish Lavender.  It is wonderful.  

Covered in bees and smells divine. 

Hope everyone is having a great GBBD!!!!
