I don't think I have to tell you what a treat it is to come home to see these every day!

Here they are...

how lovely. Are those planted on a fence? I am so jealous. Mine is about 6 inches tall. Which I guess is good since I thought it was completely gone.
I also thought I had lost my flowering almond but it bloomed the other day so it is still here,too.

Naw! They are just sprawling all over each other, and they also started smaller than six inches. They were just small cuttings when I put them in pots. Now they are in one gallon pots and spilling all over each other.

I hope to do a little better with them this year. They need raised planters, so that they feet will stay cold in the winter.

I seemed to have found a perfect spot for them, so for now, this is where they will stay. It's the only BIG pecan tree that I have left (out of 9), and I hope it holds out for a lot longer.

Isn't it fun?

Aren't they gorgeous! I am thrilled and amazed.

The larger ones are about 5-7" or more, and the double one is small, about 3" but quite full.

I am touched that they are doing so well this year.

all of my Clematis Vines, that had new growth, were all knocked back by this stupid cold front. Bloom will most likely be late this year. Darn it! :mad:
