Look what I got in the mail! A generous gift of oxblood lily bulbs from Nola at AlamoNorth. Thank you, dear friend. When they bloom, I will think of you.

I have planted them in a number of places, but I don't remember where, so I'll still be surprised.

I went to the Mobile Botanical Gardens spring plant sale. Whoo-hoo!

Hello, my name is CurtissAnn, and I'm addicted to plant-buying

Does anyone know the name of this tree? It is evergreen. The leaves grow in a whorl and sort of hang down.

And they said tulips could not over-winter here:

I did not plant these, which means they had to be planted two springs ago. They have bloomed for weeks, more flowers all the time.

We really never do know what may happen next in our lives.

I’m taking part in Outdoor Wednesday, generously hosted by Susan at A Southern Daydreamer. You can pop over to her site and see many more Outdoor Wednesdays around the world.

Blessings,
