Gita-
Here's to a wonderful year for you, getting to relax and hang out with plants. Way too soggy today for the deck.

Thank you all!

I thought no one would check the Birthday list....
Felt kind of "forgotten".....Sorry! I get sentimental....

I know some of you would remember or check to see....

I did not do anything super special. Went to the Timmonium "Home and Garden"Show...

Of course--Radeboughs Florists had a double-sized booth.
They are SOOO famous in this area. I worked for them one Spring Season...long ago!

Funny story to share----
When I wen there for am interview to be hired --late 1980's---I said to the Owner---
"I CAN LIFT A BAG OF MULCH!!!! trying to impress him (Joey)...

They hired me for ONLY the Spring Season --and I knew it.....BUT--I never forgot them--
and they NEVER forgot me!

So-There as Joey--now many years ago--and I sneaked up to him and said--
"I can lift a bag of Mulch" and he turned around and said--"HI! Gita"...

It has been the late 80's that I worked them for ONLY a Spring Season---Ant theyu have NEVER
forgotten me!!!!
THAT is the sign of a RELAY caring Employer!!! 30 years have passed--and they still
know your name and care about you.

As it was also my Birthday last Saturday he said to me to just go and pick out any plant
I wanted as my Birthday gift. So--I came home with a beautiful Rieger Begonia as my gift.

Love these kind of people!!!!! Gita

Sally--

Well---it WAS on the 5th--Saturday--so add a day to those couple of hours....

What is that gorgeous flower you posted? Is it Milkweed?

Thanks again to you all. Now I feel better......

Hugs, Gita

Geee! Thanks, Judy! I so appreciate your sentiments.....
You almost made me tear up!

To me--like on all my past Birthdays--it is JUST another day! No celebration.
You all, on DG, make it just so much more special....

Gita.....:o)

oh, my bad!
That flower grew in San Antonio and I have no recollection of the name. Sure is striking though!
