Aren't these guys ...Hey there, fellow curmudgeons! Aren't these guys magnificent? Believe me, well worth hunting for as a blue addition to the garden ... and they're becoming more common these days (we got these at a local grocery store plant hut!). <BR/><BR/>But of course, every time we learn of a new blue flower we're always eager to add it to the garden ... it's really hard to find true blues out there unless you really obsess about it! (And we DO!) Some thrive, others don't. But we keep on trying ... and you know you'll see the successes here all in due time!Iowa Victory Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07220818462081082930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29575688.post-71879093041139802652007-05-10T12:28:00.000-05:002007-05-10T12:28:00.000-05:00Oh!

I've got the pink (of course) and purple/cream which is very nice. They're starting to come up now -- the leaves are out. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there IVG ... and make sure your chocodraw is fully stocked. Oh, I fear the return of the cubicle now that a/c weather has returned, so make sure you have a warm sweater handy.<BR/><BR/>Hi NDD!oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03401788202984343513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29575688.post-1209469154117177532007-05-10T03:03:00.000-05:002007-05-10T03:03:00.000-05:00Nice photo!
