After a long dreary winter (to me) it seems Spring has finally arrived, thank goodness. Today my sweet husband picked sweet peas for me that my nice neighbor planted at the corner of my garage. I was once an avid gardener, but age and a few glitches keep me from being active. So, I want to share my sweet pea bouquet that made my house smell like a garden. And show you a wild corner at the front of my house. Thanks for looking. I love flowers!!! :thumbup: :P

I love pretty flowers...have you ever seen an ugly one? We are in such need of rain in my part of Texas. If I knew what kind of rain dance would only bring 2 or 4 inches I would be doing it everyday. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for showing the pretty flower pictures. I can't have a garden where I live so I get great joy out of seeing what others have.

Thank you for sharing. I'm sure I could smell them. Haven't seen sweet peas in ages.
