Happy GBBD! All your blooms are pretty, but the first two photos are so intriguing! Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Thank you Gardening Blog!

HolleyGarden, the first is a pink Wax Begonia with 'rust' foliage and the 2nd is my Clematis Daniel Deronda, a stunning purple but the petals fell off in the on-shore winds we've been having daily in the evenings here this week!

Beautiful! You have so many blooms, thanks for sharing. What is in the second picture from the top?

Such beautiful flowers. The begonia looks like it is wearing a velvet wrap! And the hydrangea is a lovely color. I think it's a lacecap?

Masha, the 2nd photo is of my Clematis without its petals. (A purple 'Daniel Deronda').

Dorothy, that is a 'Strawberries & Cream' Hydrangea!

I love the color on the hydrangea -- so much more interesting than the typical pink or blue.

So many interesting and beautiful blooms... I am impressed with the hydrangea color which strikes me as unusual... and the bloom before... not certain what it is, but it's very lovely! Larry

brilliant hydragea - I can't grow them here as it is too hot, dry and alkaline.
Happy GBBD

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! *Updated*

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return. (Slideshow below - if it plays too fast, hover your cursor on it until the <- -> appear & click on them to view what you've missed).

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
