I think that our weather is going through a series of hot flashes, and it isn't the only one. But aren't hot flashes all day and night long. Mine are only at work, LOL. Maybe I am just allergic.<br /><br />Anyways, the garden is looking lovely, and I am happy to see that you can grow bittersweet there. I am supposing that anything that you can grow there, I can grow up country. Zone 5, so I am increasing my collection of available plants.<br /><br />JenRURAL https://www.blogger.com/profile/11871803235521431504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-63622524084596155252010-05-16T17:22:57.391-04:002010-05-16T17:22:57.391-04:00so joyous garden! i hope i'll have one day suc...so joyous garden! i hope i'll have one day such! <br />i found it so interesting i recognized some of the flowers my mum has in her garden, namely hearts on their sleeves, never knew what their name is even in macedonian, let alone in english.<br /><br />joyful greetings from a flower lover, <br />DAni, MacedoniaDanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08290607560485376471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-14429990995034571182010-05-16T06:19:13.460-04:002010-05-16T06:19:13.460-04:00Thanks Kiki !
