It’s taking a time as I am making notes etc on books, recipes and your lovely home. I had to write this time after seeing the pic of the snapdragons- I haven’t seen them for many years and they bought back so many memories so thank you. I so look forward to reading the many more years......btw I am from the Garden of England - Kent.mazda502001https://www.blogger.com/profile/15129109544191734447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-9358508465696808152007-07-17T10:06:00.000-04:002007-07-17T10:06:00.000-04:00Peg, milkweed is probably considered a weed, but I...Peg, milkweed is probably considered a weed, but I happen to love it. We have a whole section in a field but a little has appeared in the midst of a flower garden and I welcome it. This is the plant the Monarch Butterfly caterpillars eat before turning into butterflies. When the kids were little, we brought in some leaves and a caterpillar, put them in a jar, and actually witnessed the transformation. What a wonder! <BR/>And you have pansies in winter!! I can't imagine. They aren't even perennials here. I buy a flat of these antique color ones each spring. <BR/><BR/>Thanks Kay and Robin. I do so love flowers.<BR/><BR/>And a thank you to all the new visitors, who are part of the Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, for taking the time to comment. I'll be coming over to see your flowers soon.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-81934677651266433962007-07-17T08:50:00.000-04:002007-07-17T08:50:00.000-04:00You too love Old Roses!

I have never seen nor grown milkweed - is it from seed? I grow Alchimella Mollis (?sp) just for the raindrops, oh yes, but I do use the chartreuse flowers for fillers in bouquets!<BR/>It was so hot here this week that my pansies are suffering. I think I will cut them back a bit and put them in a shadier area for the next month or so - pansies bloom here in winter!<BR/>Thanks for the flower pics.Peg-woolinmysouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03790536800383924646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-51216162520492167562007-07-15T18:23:00.000-04:002007-07-15T18:23:00.000-04:00Thanks, Carol.

It'll be interesting to see what's still around come August 15. I love the great response you get!
