    Oooh, nice! I really like your bluebonnets. They remind me a little of our wild veronicas, but ours are smaller.

    Your tulips are lovely. I think my favourites are your dainty little bluebonnets though. :-D

    Oh yes, I like the bluebonnets too.
    Someone remind me to plant some tulips this Fall -- they're pretty too.

    I dug the Blue Bonnets up from Jubabe's yard last year and had them in a planter and just let the seeds blow.I have lots more than last year.I had about 6 plants last year.I love tulips so much but they do not do well at all in the heat.

    Beautiful blooms, my tulips haven't come back in a couple of years.

    Are you sure that critter on the Passionflower isn't a caterpillar? It resembles a Fall Web worm which is something you don't want to leave around.

    toni thank you I wasn't sure .It does have the two stripes on it and is under the cedar tree where the passion flower grows.It did seem to have longer hair like things on it.I never thought of a web worm.If its still there I'll check it closer and dispose of it if its a web worm :)
