Beautiful baby, Tom!

Sue, thanks. Bugloss, I've actually heard of it, and it's hardy here. Hurray! Did you get your from Annies?

Yes, from from Annie's Polly, the nursery is about 45 min. away. I started it from a 4" pot 2 years ago. You thinking of getting one? Green Grin!

Congrats on the award Paul, well deserved bragging rights! And a big congrats to Tom for the safe arrival of the pretty filly! Thumbs up

Trying to stay cool in the shade as the temps are in the high 80's, cool down coming on Sunday.

I'm definitely thinking of getting a couple. Not from Annies, if I can find it elsewhere. Shipping is soooooo bad to the East Coast. I don't know why she just can't stick stuff in a flat rate box.

Congrats, Paul!

See I knew you had a good reason ROFL. I just for the life of me couldn't figure out why. I remember when I used to compete in the shows. That is long gone, it is too much work for me at my age now. Congrats.

Congratulations, Paul! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!

I am sorry about the 2-year-old, Tom.

Happy for the baby, but the mom sure looks tired. Hilarious!

My siberian Iris garden area. Growing well and those spring tulips add a nice touch of early spring color.

Debra, She is a big baby, and I helped her deliver, first time I've done that, but she was getting so tired. Once I started pulling, she came fast.

Arlyn, I don't own them, they are boarding here, so the owner will have to come up with a name. I do own the proud pa pa though. Think she would pass for a red iris??? Rolling on the floor laughing

Everything is sooooooo beautiful. The filly is awesome. It's been 45 years since I helped with the birth of a little filly. Man, how time flies. I miss the love of a horse but they are just wayyyyyyyyy to expensive for me to have now, so my poor dog and 2 cats have to handle all the love. I'm sorry for the loss of the one horse. That makes my heart hurt for you. You are in my thoughts. Mona

I've started planting money trees just to be sure I have enough for fall order. You've all enticed me with so many additional choices to make.

I love the frilly tall ones but some of the SDB are something to consider after seeing all the great pics. Thumbs up

Jeepers ( This in fact is WRONG!) It is not Jeepers. I got the wrong plant. I know the source and am working to get Jeepers.
