And I can't remember what "husband=the gardener" put on them this year. <BR/><BR/>But the first year these bloomed, they started out blue, and progressed to pinkish... Even while still growing. I know that dried ones, turn shades. But these were growing and changing and spectacular. Hope they do it this year too. <BR/><BR/>Mari-Nancismilnsighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17207943167502354530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20402991.post-54715218886943668242007-08-01T03:18:00.000-07:002007-08-01T03:18:00.000-07:00Wonder of wonders, we've enjoyed rain showers almo...Wonder of wonders, we've enjoyed rain showers almost every day for a month and we trust that it keeps on pissin' down. At that, we're behind numerous millimetres, say 10 inches worth, for the year and this is our rainy season. Our dams are about 26% full and maybe we'll reach 35% by the end of winter.<BR/><BR/>Your pictures sure don't look like the Az I remember.<BR/><BR/>I advise that you keep on appeasing the rain god.<BR/><BR/>HermanoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20402991.post-51969169506017940672007-08-01T00:30:00.000-07:002007-08-01T00:30:00.000-07:00All of the green shooting up so quick.
