Springtime in the Backyard

No, we don't have any bluebonnets (see last post), but we are enjoying other newly blooming plants like this bouganvillea. We paid $2.98 for this plant at a closeout sale at Lowes several years ago and this is the first year that it has really bloomed. I think we got our money's worth.

The Indian Hawthorne has been lovely.

We've just planted some miniature roses, geraniums, and lantana.

We were sitting out by the pool when we noticed something zipping by. We think it was a hummingbird, but we're not sure. It loved lantana.

We know that it won't be long before the dog days of summer here in Texas, but we're loving it right now!
