  4. That looks great. Am envious that you are celebrating Spring. Our Runnuculus disappeared a long while ago from the gardens.

  5. Ooooo, beautiful! I love runnuculus, I used to grow it back in Napa. They're beautiful in the garden and beautiful in vases :-)

    We're just starting to color up for fall here. I'll get out and start photographing soon.

    Thanks for posting this :-)

  12. I am not familiar with the flower -- I'll have to check and see if it grows in Florida... it almost looks like a "straw" flower...
