Who Knew ?!

I have a love of all things green. I get so excited when the ground thaws and I can start planting things and taking inventory of the plants that did (or did not) make it through the excruciatingly long winter. Two (or maybe three) years ago we went down to Texas and visited my grandparents Memar and Pawpaw. They took us to Fredricksburg to see the most amazing flower garden and shop I have EVER seen. Y'all know how they do it in Texas... the bigger the better. I bought bluebonnet seeds, choosing not to listen to the nay-sayers telling me they will never grow, it will only break your heart and waste your money. Well folks, they did grow. And grow. And grow. They keep coming back, bigger each year. This is their second (or third) year, and though they look purple, they are actually bluebonnets blooming yet again!
