    Hey Shellie,

    These always remind me of Dame Enda Everage, so cool! :)

    Love them :)

    Thanks so much for your help the other day with blogger, it really helped.

    I love the flowers you made for your Mom, truly awesome. :)

    Have a lovely Monday, cheers, T. :)

    P.S. YAY! to be back on blogger :)

    I have orange gladiolas in my backyard. Every year, without fail, they pop up.

    wow, yeah, i'd definitely say that was 6 bucks well spent. something as gorgeous like that would cost at least twice as much over here. you are such a great flower person, i love it!

    i got a very nice lavender plant for my birthday. i love the smell on my fingers when i rub the leaves! i hope it doesn't die on me. i read that if i treat it well, it can make it for years!

    Dame Enda huh? I saw a photo where she/he had hair the color of those gladiolas.Im glad blogger is working for you again...what a hassle indeed!

    Hey Carmie lucky you someday i hope to have glads in the garden all i have right now bulb wise are bearded irises.


    LW Im surprised about the price since you live relatively close to holland and the international flower market.I guess I really am lucky to get six dolloar glads.I love lavender too. Just dont overwater it or let it dry out completely. I have 2 of the spanish varieties. I love the smell. I love dr bronners lavender soap it kind of has a medicinal smell but i totally dig it.
