My husband is part Irish, so St. Patrick's Day is special to me (Ireland, in some way, gave me the best husband on earth!). I celebrated by giving...
I miss Auntie Bel, where I would usually post something like this topic. Ah well . . . . We recently had a power outage, and when the power came...
Barb, you are such a special lady, and I hope you have a very Happy Birthday!
Hank, it is technically "Texas Mountain Laurel" but I've never stood on technicalities. When it sets seed, I can send some to you. It is slow to...

I've been offered a "red bird plant" that is described as having variegated leaves that if exposed to sunlight get red tips, making the stem of...
