Nice bright colors Steve. Do yours reseed & come back every year? Mine are blooming but covered up by the grass & weeds in the bed. These used to come up in my rose bed every year, but now they've disappeared/.  |

Steve, your Moss roses are very pretty. Gayle, you also have some pretty flowers. Ili, I enjoyed seeing your photos from Morro Bay with the submarine and boat. I was looking at some of my old photos on BP and found this one of my Mom with our hydrangea plant.   As you can see our hydrangea is now purple and it really grew over the years. |

Steve and Gayle...love your moss roses. They do not reseed and come back here and I have forgotten about planting them for a few years. Ili..love the Morro bay pics...very interesting and beautiful scenery. Mary...what a nice picture of your Mom with your hydrangea...special. A favorite coleus of mine...it is in full sun!  |

Steve-Those moss roses are very nice looking. Haven't grown them in years. Gayle-Nice bed of flowers. I never had luck with those reseeding here. Ili-Nice pics! Fun to see places others have traveled to. Mary-What a sweet pic of your mom. That plant sure has grown. If I can get pb to cooperate I'll be in business here. Its just spinning away. Not sure if its fighting my ad block or what but it's not loading worth a darn. Minneopa Falls, Minneopa State Park Upper Falls  Lower Falls  American Bellflower - a native, non invasive bellflower.  This was an old windmill used to grind grain over 130 years ago. It was damaged by 3 storms over the years, one knocking off 2 of the wind spinners and the last knocking off the last 2, at which point it was no longer used. It sits on the high point of Minneopa State Park.  This is the view from the top over looking the park. This area is now a bison enclosure. They currently have 11 bison in the park but are hoping to build the herd over time. My panoramic isn't perfectly level, but if you've ever tried to do one with an iphone you get why (not the easiest).  |

Charlene-That coleus is very pretty. Will you take cuttings and overwinter it? LOL...you know I will...also about 8 other new varieties of coleus to do cuttings on...thanks to the GH by your place and the sale they had that day we were there..lol. Love your MN pictures....I think we visited those falls the same vacation I mentioned when I was 4 or 5. Gitti...pretty picture. Maybe there is a way to resize on your tablet? I think Angela might have posted one from a tablet over the weekend, but not suite sure on that. Sorry, I can't give you any tips. Marg...good to see you visiting here. |

Thanks, Charlene!  Here is the pic I was trying to post earlier! Its actually a brand newly built modern Amish farmhouse! These Amish around here have grown very rich these days! House still has to be built by Amish guidelines, Amish builders, no elec, but all sorts of other fancy moder amenities. I have seen inside some. They have wall to almost wall carpeting (as i call it) lol!, beautiful cabinetry in kitchens, modern plumbing and fancy bathrooms. But all need to be approved by their district Amish bishop! I have even seen wallpaper in some! Lol! These ppl run a successful bakery, plus farm! I can still spot an Amish farmhouse even if modern! Anyone know what this bush is? |
