    Glenda wanted me to take some pictures from her yard. I think I went at the wrong time because the sun was too bright. I'll post these and then try again some other time.
    First, Kevin's yucca getting ready to bloom.

    Then some flowers blooming. I'm not sure of all of them so she will have to tell you.

    Thank you Laura so much.My little buddy looks so good and the first little blooms are the Crown of thorns.The second is my purple Oxalis .The Mose Rose is in there.I think the ones in the pan is my dwarf Daffy's I think.The red rose at Kevins is suppose to be a Blaze climber.
    I have a Yucca plant out by my cactus plants .Is it trying to bloom?

    Your yard is looking good, Glenda. I especially like that plant in the two last photos. :D

    Great set of photographs Dooley. I would love to see the yukka again when it's in flower. Glenda's oxalis has really come on and I love the shape, and colour, of its leaves. Little Oreo has got to be the best bloom in the garden though as he's just sooooo cute. :-D

    Glenda you are so lucky to have Dooley there taking great care of Oreo and taking great photos to share! I do hope she posts more photos when the Yucca bloom opens. Are those Brugmansia's on the left in the 7th photo? And what is the variegated plant in the top left in the 3rd photo? I have one and have never known what it is!

    LOL. I first took a quick glance at that first photo and thought it was asparagus. Either I'm really ready for some spring or it must be lunch time.

    Oreo is just too cute. One will not get tired looking after him.
    I would also love to see the Yukka is full bloom. I love those plants they are so hardy and good-looking.
    Your yard looks very neat. I love it. :stew2:
