SORRY, DEAR!






John's feelings are hurt because I've only posted pictures of what I planted last weekend, and ignored the results of all his back-breaking labor with the pickaxe. So, here you have it: 3 new purple loropetulums; 2 new Will Fleming yaupons (one on each end of the house),

which grow tall and narrow like an Italian Cypress, but which are probably better suited to Texas; 7 assorted yuccas to go with the native ones already here; his delightfully contorted Harry Lauder's Walking Stick (in the pot); and last but not least, his precious little peach tree.

Is that everything Hon? Sure hope so - cuz those are the only things that have been gettin' watered!

You guys have been working h-a-r-d! I'm amazed at how dry it looks there - it's so wet here that we actually have moss growing in our spongy back lawn this spring!

Actually, it's been pretty wet compared to the last couple of springs, but it's starting to taper off. More rain and dropping to the low 30's this weekend. Hope we don't lose any plants. We really should have waited another week or two to plant, but we always jump the gun. Just can't help ourselves!
