lol. i have cyclamen in a container on the porch and begonias in the ground. want some begonia starters? i have really excellent luck propagating these fm cuttings and i have plenty of them scattered around already.
i suppose so since thats what i thought i was planting. anthony brings home rejected plants from his job, and i guess what it is and reuse it if i think it will survive.
surprisingly enough, my begonias survived in the beds over winter at ridgecrest! that's where i got my start here, just dug some up and brought them with me. now i have more than enough here.
pretty much everything survives no matter what condition it's in when i rescue plants. that's why lee started calling my place the plant hospital when we were at ridgecrest. she'd abt kill something what with being gone so much and hers not getting air or water in her house and she'd bring it to me looking like it was already gone and i'd manage to recoup it for her.
i gotta take pics. my roses are to die for over here, and the rest of the garden is in full bloom too. it's gonna be soooooo gorgeous bef the season is out. i twined that star jasmine (aka confederate jasmine) back upon the new lattice you hung on the side of the porch and can't wait for it to bloom this year.
oh! speaking of jasmine, do you need a couple of cape jasmine (gardenia) bushes anywhere? i've got enough of those to share .... brought them fm ridgecrest and have at least five in the ground, maybe more. i have good luck propagating those also so won't mind letting one or two go if you have anywhere for them. i have both the dwarf bush and the larger one. got my larger variety start fm cuttings fm sister bessie a couple of years ago. got the dwarf variety from rescue plants shannon brought to me when he lived dn this way. (got plenty of star jasmine too, if you want it. it's an aggressive grower and can be used as a climber or groundcover. small white blooms, very fragrant.)
Definitely a winner on various uses in the landscape. Makes a great vine, twining to about 12 to 15 tall. Its ability to take full sun or part shade makes it a great choice for screening in patios, porches, or carports. Take away the support and it makes a fabulous ground cover. Blooms in the spring with very fragrant, star like white flowers. Consider it to cover fences or equipment near pools as it is pretty clean, not dropping a whole lot of plant debris. Overall a very tough, worthwhile plant in any yard. Hardy to the low 20's or upper teens.
In more northerly latitudes, star jasmine is grown in the house or greenhouse in large pots or tubs. Constant trimming transforms the vine into a splendid, bushy plant from 2 to 4 feet in height which blossoms freely at a hint of spring. it's very hardy outdoors here, and evergreen all year. http://davesgarden.com/pf/showimage/17598/ http://pics.davesgarden.com/pics/pdb_Thaumaturgist_2003-06-03_1054667808710_tn.jpg http://davesgarden.com/pf/showimage/39965/ http://pics.davesgarden.com/pics/ismdavid_1082727168_700_tn.jpg more on star jasmine: http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/55230/ I figure you're familiar with the gardenias (cape jasmine) so I didn't link to any info on them. :)
No pictures of Cody?? Once again the last picture of Cody that you have on here is back in December???? Why is that??? Not your grandson is that what you think??? How can you show a difference??? They are both Darrell's Kids right??? But you want to show a difference??? Why is that????
This is a case of the runaway wife and she wants everyone else to bear the responsibility for the results of her decisions. Get a real life. (Sorry, little brother, remove my replies if you think it best.)
It's also a real misrepresentation of the care and affection given both children by the grandparents. And I mean real caregiving, in terms of seeing that they have a clean, safe, environment where they are not screamed at, mistreated, left to go hungry or dirty, or mistreated in any way, shape, form or fashion. Instead, they are both treated with tenderness and generosity. They are not left to cry or feel needy or insecure, rather they are comforted, held, and loved. They have never been deprived of the comforts little children need when in the company of these grandparents.
Can the same be said for the ranting person poisoning this blog with their meanspiritedness?
if you filled out a proper profile and revealed who you are and connected to the family's network here, you would notice that there are lots of pictures of cody on byron's page, as recent as april. however, they are marked for byron's network and not for everyone, so anonymous cowards will have to settle for this album of photos _by_ cody:

How can you show a difference??? They are both Darrell's Kids right??? But you want to show a difference??? Why is that???? there seems to be some confusion here, so, for the record; no, darrell is not the father of this precious little boy. a quick glance at his birth certificate will show that. just saying a lie over and over doesn't make it any more true. unlike some would prefer to premise, you cannot change your bloodline by simply going to live with someone else, nor. for that matter, can you change who is your kids biological parents. there can be many "dads", but only one father. the only reason that we are not better grand parents than we are is because of the sickness of the children's mother, who, because she was also maltreated as a child, inherited vileness and hatred for all things peaceful, cherishes nothing but disorder and anger, and denies us proper access to discipline, care for, influence, and love these children with all of our hearts desire. yes, and even (shudder) spoil them. somebody call a doctor.

Just in case it was a truly honest question, I will answer that question. Cody is very seldom here. On the very rare occasions that he is here for the day without his mother in tow, Cody is a very rambunctious little boy. He bores easily with the types of games that grandparents play. If Curtis is here, they rough house, or ride off on a four-wheeler or a horse (there are pictures). It takes constant vigilance to keep an eye on him, keep him from breaking something, jerking things away, or from accidentally on purpose hurting his sister. If you do not cave in to his constant demands, he is apt to spit at you, kick or throw something at you, or curse you. Keeping him out of trouble takes both hands and eyes and is exhausting after just a few hours. None of this is conducive to a relaxing photo session. I have photos of both children that are not flattering to either and I do not post everything. I never blame children this young for their misbehavior. They do not pick up bad manners at the daycare. They learn habit from their parents. If you scream and curse, they scream and curse, if you swat at them, they will swat at others. If you ignore babies cries and pleas, they learn to ignore babies cries and pleas. Bottom line, bad parents raise equally bad children. That is why God made some of us grandparents, to help balance the ignorance and immaturity of young parents. If enough time is spent with them, they can help teach a child to read, they can teach them how to speak coherently, they can help them brush their teeth, they can teach them proper etiquette and not just shallow words, they can teach a child how to show affection, and, in return, the child will give back more than you ever dreamed. Each child is different and has a unique personality. Each one is special in entirely different ways and should be made to feel that way. They will have their own likes and dislikes. Some things are obvious, like the differences between little boys and girls. The differences between their toys and clothes. If you insist on making no distinction, then you are raising them as cattle. Neither one is distinguishable. Your jealousy, paranoia, and insistence about the equality of your children causes both to suffer.
I do not believe any of this explanation will satisfy you, and for that, I don't completely blame you, I blame your parents, it's a vicious cycle.
this blog contains many more features besides photos, and it is only a small part of the things which i have and wish to share with others that can only keep in daily touch via long distances. it is read or viewed by choice. there are always many opinions and i would be happy to discuss just about anything personally & privately and in a civilized manner.
Not me. I would rather be abusive; My preferred method being to kick them in the kneecaps and step on their necks while they are down. If they disagree with me after that I figure it is because they weren't serious about the discussion and lost consciousness somewhere between the 5th and 6th minute of my foot on their necks.
sometimes that works, but more than anything except insurance, i dislike paying bail money to keystone cops. apologies not necessary. nothing gives this clan more pleasure than stirring trouble and seeing how much pain they can cause without any remorse. it's like a mischievous child that knows they can get more attention by misbehaving. i usually try not to give them the satisfaction by ignoring them, but sometimes the neck thing makes you feel better..
Debby thinks that I say the meanest things. For example: I am convinced that the best time to go to tourist destinations is during the Senior Citizens bus tours. One is guaranteed a position at the head of every line: merely push one of the old people down and yell, "Heart attack!" Many are petrified with thinking that it may be them next having a cardiac arrest, and those who know what really happened are not going to push back because they are too old (except perhaps Mama). Vhwahlah - move to the head of the line... ;o)

i think you are the wife's mother. not that it matters.
you are still wrong
still wrong?
lol.
Could only be a handful of people, but, like I sd, not that it matters. Doesn't change the cowardliness, meanspiritedness or the lack of wisdom.
I AM SORRY TO ANYONE WHO TOOK OFFENSE TO THIS!!!!!
hey, thanks fellas, but i have heard this stuff before anyway.
