I haven't been around the blog world much this last week, as my newest grandchild was born yesterday, May 16th. I have pictures posted on my Pie Blog- see the link in my sidebar if you want to see his sweet pictures.

Balloons for the garden!
I bought this little "balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorus)" last October, after seeing one on another blog. It bloomed last fall and then completely died back over the winter. When it started growing this Spring, at first I thought it was a weed, not even remembering the little plant that had grown in that place, until the first buds started and then my memory kicked in. It has done well, and the first bud opened up the other day.

Your so right Deborah! I didn't think about it when I did the post but that balloon bud did sort've develop in the same fashion as a pregant belly :)
