Sorry to hear about the snow and cold. :( It's cool here too...47 lol Glad you liked the picture. What I found about the Bluebonnet is that they grow about 1 to 2 feet tall and are not found naturally anywhere else but in Texas. There are some new colors, red (more of a pinkish) and white now but I haven't seen them yet.

Here's what ours look like around June!

Oh yeah they are a lot alike from what I can tell. The ones you have up there look like they are bigger and what's the word? heavier? The Bluebonnets seem to be delicate and not so heavy.

I think it's about time for me to get to bed, have to wake dh up in 3 hours. lol
Have a good night (morning) and stay warm.
:hug:

That doesn't sound so bad right now (read my rant to see why). Have you ever been in the room with an 8 year old and 11 year old boy that want to hurt each other. No hard conversations taking place here either.

Brain - we will definitely have to work on those high ceilings for Gazelle. I'm thinking no on a Zinc roof, just got some info that those are noisy.

I agree - tin roof on the patio. Too loud for my brain.

:eek:

I can't wait for spring to come! Maybe we all need to start posting pictures of flowers and blooming trees and shrubs!

BTW, the rabbits have gone hogwild with my little lilac bush in the backyard. Every time it snows, you can see their fresh trail out there and a well-trodden path surrounding the shrinking shrub. I doubt I'll ever get blooms again if we don't do something about our evergrowing rabbit population out in the yard.

I'm thinking about having the deck removed and replacing with a brick patio since they live underneath. Also, I'm going to trim the bottom branches of all the evergreens they use for shelter. I think this might have some effect on their growth. :confused: The blasted wabbits!

Our surrounding neighbors all have dogs, so that might limit their nesting abilities somewhat.

The rabbits don't bother my bulbs. I have to grow the lettuce in pots though, cuz I know they'd eat that. But you wanna get rid of em, let cats in the yard. There are cats in any neighborhood.

And I think you're right about the crocus - you're supposed to leave the snow on them, and they'll bloom right through it. I meant I raked the leaves and debris off mine.
