ReplyDeleteGive Velvet a huge hug from me. I love cats.
Hubby got me two rose trees. One yellow and one that is pink and peach. I will have to get some pics.
Have a wonderful day.
Your clematis are beautiful. Love the bird house in the last photo! I can't believe your peonies are about to bloom. I haven't even seen buds on mine yet!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Sandy your clematis blooms are lovely. I love the cage, and the bird is such a great addition.
ReplyDeleteMy hydrangeas are doing so good. I am so grateful to you for sending them to me.
