This year we have had the most perfect Texas winter. Lots of short sleeves and jeans…cool in the morning…warm during the day and enough rain to count for something. You’d think I’d spend more time in my garden…oh well. Despite my chronic neglect, a few things are starting to act like it is Spring. Case and point…this sweet little rose that I spotted…signaling to me that my garden is ready to awaken from a very short nap….
Sounds like there is compost and manure in my future!

Even though I am CrAzY jealous that you have roses budding, I do want you to post as many pics as you can, as “blogland” is the only Spring in my day. We still have months to go, and have even had to delay Little League Opening Day for all the snow on the field!
