I promised to post some photos from my birthday and I try to live up to my promises! Since I got plants galore you will be subjected to a slew of bulb information and photos but don’t run away yet! We also have some adorable baby photos and some yummy fondue photos to share.
First, I compiled a list of the plants I got, plugged them in to my Dave’s Garden Journal with photos so I could remember what got planted where in a few months. It’s so easy to forget what you have and where you put it when you have a garden addiction like I do!
- Peruvian Daffodil (view my dave’s garden journal entry by clicking here) – Is a uniquw white flower with wispy petals and a sweet scent. Related to paperwhites in the narcissus family, can’t survive frosty conditions so it makes a great house plant!
- Summer Sunset Calla Lilies (view my dave’s garden journal entry) – Have green leaves with tiny white spots and orangish/ yellow blooms.
- Anemone/ Grecian Windflower (view my dave’s garden journal entry for these variations: The Admiral, The Governor, St. Brigid and Mr. Fokker ) – These come in a variety of color variations, they look poppy like and are deer resistant.
- Karl Rosenfeld Peony (view my dave’s garden journal entry) –
- Bowl of Beauty Peony (view my dave’s garden journal entry) – Has pink flower petals with cheery yellow and pink centers, plant in feb-march in Arizona.
- Tiger Orange Lily (view my dave’s garden journal entry) –
- Blue Girl Tea Rose (view my dave’s garden journal entry) –
- Intrigue Floribunda Rose (view my dave’s garden journal entry) –
Here is my niece who came with my mom to stay with us for my birthday. She is the most well behaved baby I have ever been around and she loves the camera!
Here we are at Wupatki National Monument inside one of the ruins. I wasn’t quite ready for the photo to be taken (as you can see) but it’s still priceless.
Here is a photo of us eating fondue on my birthday. It was yummy and so much fun!
We took my mother and niece out to Grand Falls for fun, we of course got a group photo of us in front of the waterfall.
And here are the photos I took of my newly sprouted crocus. They have surfaced in a variety of colors and locations. We are really enjoying their progress and beauty and thought you might also.
T~ I am glad that you had such a great birthday! Happy Birthday from me – sorry that I am late. I can hardly wait to see your beautiful new flowers!

Oh, your niece is adorable! The fondue looks like so much fun! And your plants look great – I’m looking forward to learning more about them and seeing them grow. Also, the crocuses look great too. I haven’t seen mine this year. Hmmm. Oh well, I’m glad you had a nice birthday – you deserve it. It’s been a crazy past couple of months for you!
