I'm amazed at how plants can make it through a drought as tough as we got in 09. Two Mexican blue sages I was sure were dead, along with some plumbago plants are back, albeit taking their time, justifiably.The bluebonnets in our median are stunning. They came out in late fall 2009 (no blooms) and lay real low during the winter. Maybe that's what gave them the base to rise to great heights--that's my totally unscientific take on the bluebonnet phenomenon this Spring all over Austin.
The rest of the photos show off the beautiful, blooming survivors, including the crossvine, the best Spring it's had so far.
Our kitty loved the photo opp...
And I forgot what ground cover this is...anyone know? It just keeps spreading and looking wonderful.
The feather grass has never looked better...
Hi Kelly,
ReplyDeleteYou guys sure have put in a lot of effort into your yard. I'm amazed at how many different plants you have. It's all I can do to keep the weeds and crepe myrtles alive. :) Love the bluebonnets too.
