I am so thrilled that they have come up with a Purslane that stays open till dark! And if that wasn't good enough - it is a darling double! Then the name is double enchanting too.
From the 'Fairy Tale' series, this one is 'Snow White'

Gee, I wonder why I keep losing internet connection. Wonder if there's something wrong with the phone line?

Look's perfectly fine to all us gardeners, Maggie. The problem must be from a different source.

Yep, no prob :)

Check out this native clematis!

These are the first blooms - young vine is only a couple of feet tall in pot. Master Gardener Ben O brought it to me this spring.

The Cornwall Crocosmias are living up their prolific reputation.

Maggie, have you seen this picture before? Is this your garden? It was in my online Gardenguides newsletter.

Oh you flatter me! But it does have a circular landing like mine, and is done in the same limestone as my terraced beds - except that one appears to be laid by far better masons :) and appears to be far better groomed and planted than mine. Thank you for even thinking it might be mine :)oxox
I have always intended to add a 2nd walled bed below the existing one. I'm thinking it will have to wait until that garden fantasy comes true - the one where I just point, or wiggle my nose and everything jumps into place without any other effort. ;)

Well Maggie, I thought your gardens and masonary looked pretty darned good too.

I been wiggling my nose for years now, but nothing happens :) Guess we grew up in the I Dream of Jeannie era, but what could we be doing wrong.

Maybe we need to start wearing those filmy pantaloons ;-)

and that skimpy top? :) What a scary thought!

Its starting to sound like what the younguns are into wearing now a days :)
Gee, we'd be right in style (if not in the right shape ;-)
This thread is takin a while to load, so I'd better start an autumn 2002 one before loading any more picies.
Altho, its probably much more autumn in W Virginia than it is here, so feel free to start a new one for yourself MK - with more dear deers :)
