Keep us updated on the blooms.walk2writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501812375142037251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229746686941298595.post-1694596403202507662009-04-03T18:08:00.000-07:002009-04-03T18:08:00.000-07:00Beautiful photos.

Bird of paradise were my favorites when I lived in California, but I haven't been able to grow them here. Looking forward to pictures of your bird blooming.Diane AZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02304549124035767882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229746686941298595.post-47749530640156504422009-04-02T06:09:00.000-07:002009-04-02T06:09:00.000-07:00Doesn't it make you feel good when you transplant ...Doesn't it make you feel good when you transplant something and it survives!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11745604261113221887noreply@blogger.com
