It was 70 here yesterday we had thunderstorms and tornado watches last night and its supposed to be 75 today..... I think someone forgot to tell mother nature that it is winter LOL

EatHamNotTurkey: waaaaahaaaaaaaa  I want snow

ajtgirl: from everything ive read on it its a minimule(sp) risk and they say to wash them even in the bags

Dolittle: thats it thank you so much

ajtgirl: its not a bulb or a tuber its got the hairy looking roots id like to transplant some in a pot to bring inside so i can plant it again next spring

skipinnz: single flowers and tiny small as a seed and the leaves are much smaller than an inch they are bout the size of my thumb nail

my cousin bought me a pretty plant last spring it has small green leaves round with a point and they look as if some one splashed pink paint on them they are now sprouting tiny purple flowers i cant find the name stake that was in it its a folige plant I dont have a picture but was wondering if anyone had an idea and how to transplant it

amandalove: what a wonderful poem thanks for sharing

ajtgirl: what winter?? lol no it doesnt get to cold and we hardly ever have any snow being so close to the bay. So my yuccas survive very well.

ajtgirl: my drift wood is very large and it provides a border for my yucca plants, i live in Virginia near the chesapeake bay its 1 pm and 91 right so thats an idea of our temps im looking for something simple to care for

plaintiger: do you know where i would go to get the air plants and what is it you mean something like i had as a kid an air fern???

i have some really wonderful fairly large pieces of driftwood.... does anyone know of some plants that may grow on it??

nobleheart: lilacs and honeysuckle are my faves but also love the smell of daffodills

nobleheart: i love lily of the valley especialy how wonderful they smell

nobleheart: no i havent ive not been back by the houses yet to be able to ask the owners

skipinnz: thanks so much thats exactly what i wanted to know, mine is so pretty and i love the pot its in its kind of blue and brown swirled together with a tiny tiny chin man with a fishing pole and itty bitty fish dangling from it it looks so nice on my coffee table

I got the prettiest lucky bamboo plant today I know how to care for it but does anyone know the story behind it??

nobleheart: no I havent guess I will have to knock on the peoples door to find out what it is it really is quite wonderful looking

nobleheart: no thats not it ... the flower its self is orange and yellow and it is a single bloom and it is shaped exactly like a piece of candy corn and its a large bloom bout the size of a day lily

In my area a couple of yards have a flower Ive never seen before, I will describe it best as I can. It is orange and yellow and its shape looks like candy corn. Its leaves and stems are similar to a day lillies. Does anyone know what kind of flower this may be?? I wish I had a photo of it. They are really neat and do look like candy corn.

plaintiger: its 11:27 pm here in Virginia and its 71 f after a lovely day for my moms 60th b day surrounded by my gorgeous flowers

Foxy Lady: my dafodills are up and my lilac bush has buds on it and my grape hyacinths are up as well

Foxy Lady: oh my lucky lady i know you dont think so lol but i love snow maybe ill try to talk hubby into moving to your neck of the woods lol

Foxy Lady: we have spent the last few weeks in the 80's and 90's with the heat index most days in the 100's and now its 69

Eriisa: mothballs work with snakes too i live in the country and we have the occasional snake that tried to move in but have found they dont like the scent of mothballs either

ScarletRose: or grown in alaska in the matanuska valley they grow monstous veggies and fruit yearly lol

nobleheart: I think weird is an understatement lol

Yesterday was so beautiful. We had clear bright blues skys with not a cloud in sight. Warm air with an almost tropical breeze blowing. Spring is finally here in good old Virginia. All the trees have buds and the grass is getting greener each day. Its looking like today will be just like it.

my hubby tried to get our garden ready today and the rototiller threw a rod right threw the motor :(

Foxy Lady: we have hit 60 today with rain all day long I even heard thunder this morning lol

Foxy Lady: we hit a high of 56 today with a slight breeze the trees here are starting to bud i love it

Foxy Lady: my husband started planting inside this weekend he started the cabbage seeds hes gonna build me some boxes this year for my flowers so we wont have to weed and then they can be moved to mow the grass

nobleheart: I had never heard of one but here is what i found http://www.geocities.com/wenjin92014/foto2001/dragon.htm

ScarletRose: no prob i dont like doing the assuming thing either lol

i would love to have some lilacs but my cousin is allergic :(
