Morning Glories 2021 #03

Pretty blooms Jackie. I love the color of your brug blooms. So pretty, I went to lowes too today. Bought a citrus tree with swallowtail cats and 3 eggs. They they might not make it if the plants were sprayed but I'm going to try anyways. My new hobby but I haven't given up on mgs yet. Got into soil a bunch of ip nils this morning. I have them under lights to give them an extra start.

Thanks Helena,. Hope your new swallowtail cats and eggs make it. Sounds
like you got a lot done today. I potted up a couple more mg;s yesterday but need to do more.. Running to Lowes to check out their seeds.

Nice to see all the beautiful bloom ladies.

I got bad news a few days ago, and more today.
Last week my brother was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, he also has pneumonia.
Well he started vomiting blood yesterday, so back to the ER. They found he has upper GI bleeding they are trying to stop, a kidney stone and bone cancer. They are keeping him in the hospital till Tuesday, and will send him home with hospice care. This is my youngest brother, he just turned 61. He is paralyzed from a stroke he had 2 years ago, now all this.
I am flying to Michigan next week Thursday.

Please keep him in your prayers.

I am so sorry to hear this Linda, devastating news.
Sending hugs to you and prayers for your brother.

I'm so sorry to hear the news about your brother Linda. I will be keeping him and you in my prayers.

Thanks so much.

I hope the rain stopped even though it's somewhat cloudy.
Had a few blooms this morning. Showing a pretty pink old fashioned climbing rose. And my new ip nil seedlings, really like the dark stems.
Jackie did you find the seeds you went to look at Lowes?

Beautiful mg blooms Helena. Love that pink rose too. Your seedlings
look great.
I didn't get to go by Lowes, the rain came up and I had to hurry to the grocery store and $ store. so I will try again today. I hope my Lowes is carrying the same mgs your store carries..

Helena, pretty sure I found the Blue Star sds, They were mixed in with Heavenly blue, Some of the prettiest blooms I ever got from a mg were from Blue Star

Jackie, glad you found your blue star seeds.
I do like them too, seems the ones I have crossed with flying saucer.
The only bloom I got this morning.

Good morning everyone.
I love all the beautiful photos you are posting.

It's a gorgeous bloom Helena. Flying Saucers and Blue Star are both tri-colors. Same
species so perhaps making it easier for them to cross.

Thanks Jackie and Linda.
No mg blooms but took pics of these. First set of neat queen Anne's lace seeds.
