bryters-were they kimberly queens?  i tried that too one time but didn't cut it back before i brought it in and yes a mess.  grandmaw kept her's this winter and it's doing pretty good.  but those dern Bostons and their constant shedding drove me NUTS!!!

i love the hostas too but don't have enough shade for them. 

congrats on the new grandbaby---keep us posted.  boy or girl?

I didn't do good with the ferns, I brought them in for the winter a big mistake.  A really big mess. So I put the 1/2 dead plants out last week when it was warm and I thought they would like the rain... WRONG they are now 100% dead. All that mess and thye died anyways. Blace Eyed susans and Hostas are my favorite. I havent been able to kill them yet. I'm still waiting on my 1st grandbaby to show up. Doctor will induce on the 6th :)

Connie I have my in planters so I can move them around if I need to.  They like direct sun but if the summer heat is too much for them I can move them to a partly shady area.

Thanks Marine_Navy mom and yes a wisteria will get out of hand quickly and it attracts the bees.  I am not sure how many azaleas, wisteria, dogwoods we have (way too many to keep count of) but when they are in bloom there is a steady buzz going on in our yard from all the bees.

In Texas today we started out at 55 degrees and the high is going to be 68.  This is a cool front in Texas.

Matt's mom--haha i don't need my eyes checked after all!!  spotted that sprig of wisteria!! i love those Gerbera daisies too but had to nix them....no digging up to replant in the Spring here!!  can yours handle the winter?

Donna that picture was taken 4 days ago and Connie that is wisteria peeking out among the azaleas.  Marine_navy mom how cool that would be to release butterflies.

Gerber daisies are a favorite of mine.  Beautiful blooms!

Matt's mom and Marine_Navy--wow what beautiful pictures!!!

Matt's mom-do i see a bit of wisteria there too?  can't wait for our azaleas to bloom...any day now!!

also for direct sun....i have very good luck with shasta daisies...just remember to keep your daisies cut to encourage lateral blooming!! cut them back in the Fall and the short leaves stay green all winter here and shoot back up in Spring.  in one small daisy patch i have picked 3 doz. at one time!!

gosh that butterfly is beautiful!!!

fyi-it's been 5 days since i have spotted mr. sneaky....i am totally bummed!!! i actually miss him!!  hehehehehe

I wanted to share what the front of my yard looks like this time of year.  I wish it would last a lot longer than it does but it is beautiful when they all bloom.
