I had both yellow and tangerine for a couple of years and then they just declined. Yours are so pretty.<br /><br />We had an unusually warm January.

The bluebonnets must have heard you and I remember you were quite sure you wanted them out of the courtyard. <br /><br />I can't imagine it without them, they are so beautiful there and easy to transplant.<br /><br />Shirleyhttp://rockoakdeer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-45551984730401116712013-01-25T10:52:31.140-08:002013-01-25T10:52:31.140-08:00I was about to envy you your dry winter, then I wo...I was about to envy you your dry winter, then I wondered whether the lack of rain was responsible for the disappearance of the bluebonnets.

Maybe all this crazy weather is finally getting to them?<br /><br />And I think you identified my mystery plants, as I did indeed winter sow some Gulf Coast Penstemons.
