The uncharacteristic rains have certainly been good to my flowerbeds as well. Last night, I spent forever (well, that's what it felt like, at least) "training" a flowering vine that I have in my back flowerbed. I admit, I had been neglecting it and it was growing wild. I have been amazed at how quickly this plant has grown. The lady at the nursery told me it would. Don't ask the name of the plant. I haven't the foggiest. No green thumb here
!! Not a domestic goddess, remember? Maybe I'll remember to take a picture of it sometime and one of you "flower people" can tell me. It's an evergreen that has the most fragrant white blossoms.
When I was outside this afternoon, I did notice that my Crepe Myrtles (I do know their name, but who doesn't??) were looking pretty, so I snapped a couple pics of them to share. This one is in the front flowerbed on the garage end of the house. I have pink ones on each end of the bed and a white one tucked in the corner before the front porch starts. The pink ones are supposed to be dwarfs. Hmmmmm.....
