Aren't those sweet little flowers? Yea...Hi Amy,<br />Aren't those sweet little flowers? Years ago I was given a cutting from a woman in her 70s for the garden at my previous farm, and then I brought a cutting with me to this one. This is what a friend said when I posted photos of the flowers back in 2005:<br /><br /><i>It's a Kerria Japonica (also called bachelor button, Jew's mallow, sailor's button...) Mine were growing in deep forest at my last house, we pulled some up and they've been happily growing in pretty much every kind of condition we've thrown at them. You can thwack it back to shape it some but it seems happier when let run along a fence line or other such place you want a semi-sheer plant screen.</i>Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-29914300794877893212013-06-01T20:49:57.320-05:002013-06-01T20:49:57.320-05:00Can you tell me what the yellow/orange flower is? ...Can you tell me what the yellow/orange flower is?

A few years ago, I found a large garter snake in my heated basement (think that he was attempting to avoid the extreme cold outdoors and lack of snow insulation - house has a 3-foot thick stone foundation). I put him in a cage in my garage and kept him until the warm weather came. I used to see him in the garden that summer. Love snakes!Charleydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06333416883105451842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-76336537352175702542013-05-19T17:47:58.668-05:002013-05-19T17:47:58.668-05:00Love seeing all that beautiful green at your place...Love seeing all that beautiful green at your place and That Cat does look like a sweetie! :)Candy C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07863818451136277378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-17081771001242373212013-05-19T08:24:20.437-05:002013-05-19T08:24:20.437-05:00Everything is so much greener than it was last yea...Everything is so much greener than it was last year!
