    Holy Smokes!!! Those are beautiful! That means if you got color going on now, it won't be to long before color reaches me. Yep thanks to the Gulf Stream, we hardly reach O deg F here, now inland is a different story.

    Great pics droopy,, thank you for sharing and giving me hope,,,lol.

    I guess you might have to give me hope later on, when it looks like everything will just disappear in all the rain, Biita. :D

    Dang sorry to hear that droopy. We haven't had rain in a while but were supposed to get some next week,,lol,,maybe. Its been cold here, we still haven't gotten past 5 deg C yet, or out of the 30's in F. But the sun is so warm now. Its up full shining before 5 in the morning, and isn't full dark until after 10 at night, so i think that helps in making it seem warmer than it is here. I'm going out a little later to check and see if anything has come up or blooming yet. Plus hopefully play in the dirt since alot of the snow is gone now.

    We always have some extremely wet spells during spring and summer. It rains and rains for days, weeks even, with only short let-ups in between. Last July was horrible. I just hope that we won't get long ones this year, but then I hope for that every year. :D I'm also waiting for the temp to rise. At least the sunshine helps a lot here too. Go enjoy yourself, Biita!

    Ha ha ha ... well, if you find a double yellow one... you'll FIND a place for it--of that I have no doubt. ;)

    :D You know me too well, Sjoerd. Of course I will, even though it means moving ten other plants about.

    I love it all but I'm In Love with that tiny fern. So delicate and fragile looking. I'm a big fan of sedums and also primula. :)

    Thanks bethie. I'll post more Primula as they start blooming. We've got Primula flowering all through summer and well into September most years. Next ones out are the double ones, I think. We've got quite a few ferns, but only a couple that are small.
