Things are really starting to take off in my gardens!Luckily the snow we had a couple of weeks ago didn't harm many plants. Snow in April in Texas? Weird I tell you!!:) We had a blast, it never snows here!!:D

Well enjoy the look around my gardens!!

Blanket flowers and Blue Bonnets(gotta have Blue Bonnets in Texas!!:D)

My Clematis is blooming! Something has found a couple of it's petals very tasty!:(

The Blanket Flowers are doing very good as usual. They never stopped blooming! These are the same plants that were growing last year! Normally they die back every Winter!

The Blue Salvia is looking great as my ceramic duck serves as a look out!

Callie had made my little wishing well her napping spot before I planted the double Petunias in it! Luckily she has found a new place to nap!:)

The double Petunias planted in the wishing well.

Can you see the little bat's face?

Hope you have enjoyed!!

I think you have a lot of pretty flowers. I only have cool weather ones right now. It will be another month before we get to the old standby's. We only had snow once this year and it didn't amount to much. I'd better not say that too loud because it's still April here. LOL Dooley

Those are lovely pictures Jubabe. Looks like earwigs found your Clematis.
Cute kitty!

Oh I love your wishing well Julie!! Callie looks cute in it but I must admit I love the way you got it planted up with double petunias now - a favourite flower of mine. I can see the little bats face - how cute is that!!! Your garden is a credit to you. I'm glad you had a good time with the snow. We've had hardly any here in Scotland which is just as strange as you getting it in Texas.

What is the last flower, I have never seen it before. And how are your corkscrew vines doing. I ended up with 3 but still have not put them in their permanent spots.

It's all looking really great, Julie!
I hope that I can find the bat-faced Cuphea at the nursery again this year,
I don't think I saved any from last season. :(

Thank you all for your comments! Sharon the last flower is like Zuzu said Bat-Faced Cuphea! It is such a neat plant, the kids love it! Zuzu I do hope you find more of them!
Eileen I love petunias too!! They remind me of my Grandmother Charlton! I found the little wishing well at a yard sale for $5.00!!
Sharon I had 4 corkscrew vines that I planted by my trellis, but even tho I covered them well, only 2 made it through the snow we had. Those 2 are doing fairly well. I will post pics of them later.
