I don't like extreme temperatures of either kind. Hope you got some of that rare (for Miss.) snow recently! It's fun when you only have to deal with it for a few hours once every few years!<br /><br />Rose: The weather here is crazy. Some days this December, it's been 70 degrees. A lot of my perennials can't decide whether they are supposed to go dormant... hope that isn't going to hurt them. <br /><br />jodi - thanks! I post about once a week. come back soon!<br /><br />Town Mouse - thanks for visiting my blog! enjoy your cactus - I love how they bloom for awhile!<br /><br />Dan - Thanks! Happy GBBD!<br /><br />Gail - That iris is crazy! I just planted it this spring and wasn't even sure it would bloom ONCE this year!<br /><br />Dreamybee - I like the pinks and purples, too, though I associate them more with spring. Guess I sholdn't!<br /><br />Catherine - That camellia bush has been blooming for a month straight and has many more bulbs. It's about 8 feet tall and I love it!<br /><br />Jean - I don't think it's normal, either!! I haven't done anything to it! Just plopped it in a partially sunny, crappy soil spot back this spring.
