Dee

That's 'Confusion!' And confused he is! lol!

Mike

'Confusion' - before his color change!

You can see - he cannot make up his mind what color he wants to be! :)

Mike

Dee

lol! Sorry - that's not 'Confusion' you asked about. It's 'Wanda Sue!' The two pics after it are 'Confusion!' Now who's confused! rofl!

Mike

'Confusion'

Mike, I stay confused most of the time..lol.They are both very pretty brugs! The second pic of Confusion reminds me of a dollup of whipped cream on top of hot chocolate..after it starts to melt and spread out, and the chocoolate colors up the edges...mmm...yummy...just like Confusion..Leave it to me to think of something sweet...LOL
I need to get back outside and plant some more bulbs.I'm so glad that you jumped in and posted some pics. Thank you.I love looking at everyones brug pics.
Dee

I am putting you a box together, with a bunch of patterns, also a quilt pattern, I will send it out Tuesday, my DD didn't want them even though she sews, I bought her 3 sewing machine's, the one I got her for her Birthday she gave too her DD, that girl is so crafty, she also make jewerly, some has sold on ettsy, next spring I will try to root you & charlene some sangs, they are really neat, I think you need to put them in shade, they can't stand the heat
Elizabeth

Dee
today is a Georgeous day, I got some more leaves up, my figs haven't rippened yet, I don't know what's going on with them, the squirrels left me four out of thirteen, dang squirrels, if they don't ripen by the first of November, I will have to cut it back, I use a garbage can with the bottom cut out of it, then i stuff it full of leaves, I don't think in my zone it would make it without protection
Elizabeth

Why thank you Elizabeth. I can't wait to get the patterns. I will have plenty of time this winter to sew! Hey, Elizabeth,Did you forget to put the hypertuffa directions in my box, or were you not able to get the copies made? I just remembered it..I am so forgetful..lol
I have 2 sewing machines...One is computerized and does about everything but talk to you..isn't an embroidery machine tho...Anyway, I have only sewn on it a couple times. I use my old Kenmore the most. I used to have three, but broke down and sold one...lol
I didn't know that squirrels ate figs..They must eat everything. We have a persimmon tree in our side yard, and by the time they are done with it, I am lucky to see two or three persimmons a year..Darn tree rats..lol
Dee

Dee
in the box will be the instructions, I didn't forget, I just wanted you & Charlene to have your clippings in case it got cold on us, I will make copies Monday, so everything will be in your Box
Elizabeth

Oh, I see....duh...Thanks, Elizabeth!..
Dee

Dee
where is Charlene?, usually she's here by now, I hope she is chasing the mules, I hope the rest of the week is just like today, you couldn't ask for a better day, I am amazed yesterday was down right chilly, I finally got done with the laundry
Elizabeth

I don't know...I got a bunch of e-mails from her a little while ago. Haven't seen where she has posted anywhere. Maybe she is outside working. I think tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer than today, with a slight chance of rain.I mowed more leaves today. Got one side of the fence loaded up with them. Now I just have to lay them across the back. I wet them down, after I dump them, so they will stay in place and start to break down. I think the rest of the bulb planting is gonna have to wait until the IBprophen kicks in, or maybe even morning...stopped for too long and now my back hurts...doesn't take a lot of bending to get me stiff, anymore..lol..

Dee

How's the weather down your way? It was around 70 here and just beautiful!
Dee

Been chilly and damp, but the sun was shinning a little.
Went for a walk in the woods and found some bottles for my bottle tree.
Do you have one yet??? I will get you pic when I top it off
charleen

No, I don't have one, but I have been wanting to put one up, for a while now.Gonna have to work on that...I worked and played outside most of the day.It's supposed to nice here most of this week....then downhill from there I think.
Dee

Did you see the pic of Elizabeth's Iochroma purple queen? It's so neat.
Dee

Beautiful. Elizabeth always has pretty plants.
Charleen

O.K. girls I am back on, had some work I had to get done, Charlene look at my Pic's I have the sangs in there so you can see what the leaves look like, over the winter I will try to get you some seeds, a friend of mine sent me that one & the cross rosa lilla X wildfire, I can't wait to see them bloom, I started to clean out the GH, if it's going to get bad, I don't want to be caught off guard, I don't want to heat the GH till the Spring, then I will heat it about 2 weeks, from the first of April
