Gardening, anyone?

Our Spring problem here (aside from late freezes) is insufficient winter chill hours. The daffodils will bloom late January/early February on 3” stems

Marilyn,

The wild turkey is playing peek-a-boo!

Jazzy,

I hope you get to take pics of baby quail chicks.

TwoHobbies,

Spring blooms in snow are always eye-catching.

I enjoy the lovely pics and chitchat. ;o)

Husband took 2 quick pics of an old toad that was uncovered then recovered while raking.

I love looking at your new flowers, plants and animals enjoying spring. After your horrible winter, it's fun seeing all the spring pictures of new growth and life.

Jazzy, I just love seeing your garden photos because your climate is so different from mine.

cpeachy-Wow. Beautiful

wren- so, you're a painter. Painting flowers is a real challenge. Can you post any of your artwork?

twohobbies: Stunning

what kind of flower are those? Theyare beautiful,jazzygirl..

Jazzy- century plant, are those the ones that bloom once and then die off? Or Is that just a myth? So cool!

it looks like a giant asparagus

The century plant has many different names. They usually live 15 to 20 years and die after flowering. They almost always have several off shoots which will thrive and live for a long time. Hurricane Irma destroyed my 2 Century plants. I didn't bother replacing them because they have very long thorns. My not so smart retriever Ted would chew on the plant and end up with a bloody mouth. That did not stop him from chewing on the plant. I miss the beauty of the plants but I don't miss the vet bills.

I love the tiny little flowers that show up in the spring. I noticed some tiny violets at the edge of the driveway. I'm so tempted to dig the little plants up to put in my lawn. I was raised right though and so far have resisted.

meow- beautiful flowers.
