Me too, but I only have one more showing color right now, so it will be a while, then it will all happen at once.  Voltaire: "Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities," |

| Pussy Toes is pretty darned adorable ! The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us. |

| Tom -- my barn swallows were late this year. They are usually here one week after the Martins. This year, they were three weeks behind the Martins!! But they are trying to make up for lost time -- building and re-lining nests at a frantic pace!!! Thoughts become things -- choose the good ones. (www.tut.com) |

He said that was it seemed to be ,ok. it is just opening the standards. I. e. is easy to find I have the site on my favorites, & the ie appears at the lower left. |

First Iris to bloom - Gold Digger  Second to bloom -   Live like every day as it is your last because one day -- it will be. (if I can find who said this, I'll credit that dear Soul -- wasn't me, but it makes a lot of sense) This isn't a dress-rehearsal ~ |

froggardener said:Ooooo, wish you knew the name of that purple noid , it is stunning!! It's really not a true purple, I guess but that's what I call it. The falls are a more Indigo color and the standards are more purple. I like it even without a name, but it doesn't increase very fast. I have buds coming like crazy on the little guys so I should be kept busy soon trying to take pictures. I better go buy that new camera one of these days so I can get practicing with it.

My possibly Earl of Essex bloomed today. It is about two weeks early. It must be happy it was fed compared to years before because it is bigger.  No pbf "The Earth laughs in flowers." - Ralph Waldo Emerson |
