Garden Time

I spent some time in the garden this afternoon. There is a cold fron headed this way and it has been gusty all day. The weather man says that there are heavy thunderstorms headed this way later this evening. He also said that the low Monday night may dip as low as 29 degrees. Great, that means I may have to cover things again.I was able to separate and repot most of my chrysanthemums. I was able to get more snapdragons in, along with some lavender. I got out and picked up some more limestone for stepping stones and have placed them. I will need to come in later and dig some dirt out so that I make the stones a little more flush with the ground. I may bring in Irish Moss later to grow between the stepping stones. We shall see.Many of the tulips are blooming now. The daffodils are also coming along nicely.I have some pictures posted below. Enjoy them!

The Garden-Latest Pictures Are In

Here are the latest pictures from the garden. The top two are gazanias. They are beautiful during the day. They close up shop in the evening and go to bed on ly to open again in the sunlight.

The narcissus are beginning to look great. The snapdragons are in place now, as are the bluebonnets and grape hyacinth.
