My friends, I have planted some flower seeds! I have never grown poppies before but the poppy seeds that I have planted have come up and it looks like...with luck...we will have the tall red poppies soon! (The photo above is from a garden I visited a few years ago.)
I love the poppies in England but I have only seen them just the one time here in Georgia. Hopefully, I will have them in my own garden this summer!
If I were to make a solemn speech in praise of you, in gratitude, in deep affection, you would turn an alarming shade of crimson and try to escape. So I won't. Take it all as said.
===================================
Today is my birthday! Richard and I will be off to climb Stone Mountain! Wish me luck!
Richard gave me this CD for my birthday! I haven't listened to it yet, but you KNOW I will love it, right?
A very Happy Birthday to you, Kay. A double, if not quadruple supply of chocolate is in order!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and your family, too. :)
Four times the chocolate? That sounds like a good birthday to me! Thanks, Lee, it was a lovely one and a happy Easter too.
DeleteHappy birthday kay, enjoy your walk. I grew California poppies the first year we were here in Georgia and have never been able to grow them again.
ReplyDeleteI do hope that we will have the tall poppies!
DeleteFingers crossed!
Happy birthday, Kay! May all your dreams come true!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Debra!
DeleteHappy Birthday, Kay! May your cup of happiness be filled to the brim. And lots of chocolate, too!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Happiness is chocolate! :-)
DeleteWhat would there be NOT to love about the CD. I may look that up for myself. I planted sunflower seeds this morning. I hope they alł make it. Love your poppies and the smiling purse is adorable. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Connie! I also love sunflowers but I only enjoy them at my Dad's. The squirrels here let me grow them and then, they climb them and break off the large flower and take it away!
DeleteHappy birthday Kay, have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteWith warmest wishes.
Daphne
