Nope, no rant today. Flower photos instead


From customer service to gardens in less than 24 hours.  My life is like that. Consistency is not my middle name.  

It's Friday. The weather is in the 70's and sunny.  Today could not possibly be a rant day. Well, at least not yet. It's only 9:00am.  The day is young.

My garden is incredibly beautiful today. Well, if you don't count the empty raised bed where I carefully planted patty pan squash a week ago.  No squash coming up.  But weeds are. Now who can't grow squash?  Evidently I can't.  

The flowers in the front garden are gorgeous. The knock out rose will knock you out.  The irises in front of the roses are stunning with their almost black hats and lighter rosy red ones.  They could be part of a holiday procession or ritual with the participants putting on their best clothes for the parade.  We have Easter Parades here in New Orleans with everyone from the finest families of the city to the finest drag queens participating.  I'm not sure who is prettier, but I would stack my irises against them both. Who wouldn't?








See, you would spend the day on the front porch too if you had this to look at.

Don't forget to buy my book here

It is consistently in the top ten best sellers in Landscaping.  Yippee.
