A few flowers


Hi All,

Here in Southwest Florida we are in a drought.  We won't see any relief until middle of June according to our weather forecast.  That is when the rainy season begins.

Our grass is dried up as everyone's yard is and the only thing growing are the weeds.  I have a few flowers that I've been watering.

I mentioned how life has been so crazy for me the last 3-4 years with my parents illness and then passing. 

Easter Sunday I invited my brother and family to come for dinner.  It was bittersweet having my brother over but not our parents.  They would have been here in a heartbeat.  Mom and dad loved to visit and enjoy good home cooked meals.

See the pics of what's growing in my yard.  It's not impressive like some gardens in blog land but I'm working on my green thumb!  LOL

My girls got this miniature gardenia a few years back.  Just started blooming.  Love it!
This is a mum plant that has been blooming since the fall which I think is unusual for Florida.

Don't know what type of flower this is.  I'm surprised it came back up.

I have a couple of more flowers that haven't bloomed yet. Started tomato's from seed.  The plants are doing well.  Sure hope I have success with a harvest.

Hope you have a great weekend!  I'm joining Beverly at:
