  3. Looks like you have some color this winter. It's so hot here that the predominate color in many gardens is brown.

  5. I'm surprised to see so much blooming there. Your zygocactus bloom is a really pretty color.

  8. Is been so wet here, our garden is full of weeds. Just one nice weekend is all I want so I can get it back spic and span again. The decking looks great.
