Look!

what’s blooming…..

Tossed placed out into the garden after Christmas,

Actually,I forgot to plant it in the garden…

I thought it wouldn’t bloom again ….

…..until next Spring.

But ….

here it is……

in all it’s Christmas glory….

What do I know ?

Goin’ simple…..

Keeping with the simple theme.
This year…..

Seashells,sponges,coral,driftwood,and antique ornaments.

The photo is of my brothers and I,that I had matted and framed in Christmas colors.

The story book was my mother’s(over 90 years old) and is only brought out at Christmas.

Knock-out roses,Louis Phillipe Roses,Anise (Illicium floridanum),and Florida native Peperomia (Peperomia obtusifolia) cuttings,in a vase on the lanai.
