Unfortunately, we had a hard freeze for several days this year and my buds all froze. Hopefully, next year I'll see some blooms again.Tanya https://www.blogger.com/profile/15451171508299813896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018159781509450916.post-63947378038777329362017-02-24T13:44:12.514-06:002017-02-24T13:44:12.514-06:00What a beautiful garden Bonnie and it is so full o...What a beautiful garden Bonnie and it is so full of life in the middle of winter.

We've had several pairs in our yard recently and usually have some that take up residence in one of our houses. Your other sweet visitor is a goldfinch. It's fun to watch their feathers change from their winter coloring to bright gold in the summer.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16398643098588491009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018159781509450916.post-46408286273194263082017-02-18T08:24:02.850-06:002017-02-18T08:24:02.850-06:00I enjoyed the walk through your winter garden, esp...I enjoyed the walk through your winter garden, especially the photo of the sweet blue bird at the feeder.

I didn't realise that bluebirds have red breasts, like a robin. Oh my goodness those caterpillars are huge, you are very chilled about them eating your parsley!

Your camellias are so beautiful and what a pretty arrangement you made with them and the succulents. I love hens and chicks and grew them in Ohio, but I don't have much luck with them in Texas.

I ...Oh, Bonnie, what a rewarding day in the garden! I wholeheartedly agree with you in that there's something very satisfying in growing a plant from a cutting. Your variegated Daphne is pretty! And the bluebirds....love! I need to focus on attracting them, such a sweet and hard-working couple they are. I enjoy them vicariously through my sister's garden. You also have me thinking about planting camellias, yours are so pretty. I'd be willing to test try them in my sheltered brick landscape, even though they're borderline when our winters are tough. That is an American goldfinch in question, another welcome visitor. We are in sync today with our posts on the winter garden, but mine is at least two months behind yours. Have a great week.Rita C at Panoplyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351306074493103021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018159781509450916.post-3763697572961055052017-02-06T07:58:12.794-06:002017-02-06T07:58:12.794-06:00Awe, loving your winter garden!

Of course being a little further south helps. You know how I love your camellias, they remind me of my MIL's gardens where she had such beautiful blooms. I love the blue birds as well and we have them on occasion bug I haven't seen any this year. We are seeing blue jays and usually get the robins. My daffs and snowbells are up and the lilies. If we get a frost or freezing temps the lilies won't bloom. Your hearts and succulents made a beautiful arrangement to enjoy.

I love the camellias, and can't figure out why we never get blooms. Our next phone conversation must include camellias! I love to see a bluebird, they are small and shy!
