Spring is in FULL Bloom!

Monday, March 29, 2010

This weekend we attended Greenfest, which is this HUGE garden show with 90+ vendors at the University of Tampa.

There were thousand of people and we were on the lookout for the perfect bougainvillea.







It was a beautiful day and we came home with some gorgeous things!

These flowers I HAD to have. They look and feel like velvet and are so rich in color. They have sprouted up like crazy since I potted them on Saturday.






We picked out this bougainvillea and plan to plant it against the side of the ugly, large obstruction shed against a trellis.



I am also loving my front pot by the door. It makes me happy every time I come home.



I cannot wait to start planting sod and having REAL grass! We are halfway there...can't wait to share the finished product!

You are so on top of things! I have not even thought about flowers, you have got me motivated!! I love all of your choices, those that look like velvet are beautiful!!

I love your flowers, especially the velvet ones! I have to wait another 5 weeks or so before I can start planting flowers, so I'll just enjoy yours until then!

I'm a sucker for red geraniums!! I broke out of the norm this year and got some pink ones instead. I'm so wild I know! ha!!

All the flowers you got are so pretty!! Can't wait to see your finished yard transformation. :)
