Chantell, Your Fragrance Enchants Me

... So when are you going to have a Garden Tour? Huh, huh? I just *know* that you're hiding a treasure down there 'in the middle.'

Oh, Chantell, Chantell, why won't you give me a smell?

Sheesh. Sister is all over the Fragrant Gardening and M.A. Forums, but she doesn't even know that I exist... ***SNIFF***

I appreciate you wrightie :). After all, I did notice your pretty toenails.

... and you shall be rewarded, My Shweet.

(does that frighten you?)

I'm all a tremble (tremble-tremble-tremble)

I FOUND ME!!!! LOL....keep forgetting there are other threads going on then my "saved" ones...creature of habit what can I say!!! I have a townhouse, wrightie...it'll be a VERY short tour...ROTFLOL

HOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

Actually, I am relieved to hear of your townhome garden, for that means that we could focus on the important bitz ~~~~beverages. Who needs to be bogged down by all of those luscious fragrant plants anyhoo?

Ahhh...but think of Pina Coladas served next to blooming Plumerias and Jasmine....oh to be some place tropical right now.....
!!!!!!!!!! W - A - I - T !!!!!!!!!!

Tropical places are having hurricanes now...ummm....maybe I'll just stay here in ole VA

They can have their hurricanes. We can all bring our plumerias (thanks again, Susan 51, she's leafing out) and night blooming jessamin to you and all will be perfect.

Here's Miami Rose last summer after a rain shower...

Oh My. Stunning. I am but a Plumeria baby and am crossing all fingers and toes in hopes of seeing a bloom this season, but I suspect that it won't happen till next year.

Don't feel bad...out of 9-10 of them....I've had ZERO blooms this year....ugh!!! They were all moved off the deck to the back of the yard where they'll have many more hours of sun light...might not help for this year but maybe give them a "kick" for next year. Plus being on the ground I won't have to worry as much about the winds that knocked my 'Duke' Plumie off the railing and decapatated him a few weeks ago. My poor little guy from Hawaii...*sniffle, sniffle* Now he has a rooted torso with no top...and a top with no roots...very sad...

Huh. He sounds exactly like a feller that I dated before DH...

Yeah...and I must've been dating his twin brother...ugh!!!
Alrighty...my butt's going numb...LOL...time to head to slumber land...
Talk tomorrow!!! Hmmm...how many days till Grey's Anatomy? Such a sad life...

Need. More. Photos.

Plants or eye candy?

Heh heh ... I would not turn down ~either~ ... Duh.

Oh My.

I think I prefer his earlier look, if anyone really wanted to know my view on this matter...

OH yeah! OHHHH noooo...what have I done to his face? UGH!

Better?

He's a baby!!

One more....because he is "that good"

Whoo boy, is it getting McSteamy in here or is it just me!

I didn't include the shower/towel pic cuz I thought I'd get in trouble...I figured he's mostly dressed in that last one. :)

Yes, it is a wee bit McMoist all of a sudden.

OMG!!! You two!!!

BTW... I have a blender, and only live a few away from Chantell... I make a mean strawberry dauiri, and have PEFECTED the frozen Fuzzy Navel (my specialty).

Hhmmmm????

Oh Goodie we're all going to Karen's for the Grey's Anatomy Season Premiere!!! Who's house are we going to for the spin-off Private Practice?

Okay, speaking of hot and humid ... here is my one and only Plumeria which Susan51 was sweet enough to send to me a few months back. I am thrilled to pieces that (a) I stuck the cutting in the ground with the right end up, and (b) I have not killed it yet. Looks like I won't see a bloom this year, but ... a girl can dream.

Sorry about the quality of the photo. My battery was low and that was my only shot before it tanked.

Nice plants!!! Don't forget to bring her in when the night temps drop below 50...sure you knew that already.

Gotta give Taye some equal time here...hopefully the copyright won't cover his face.

Good dog. What a smile.

I am about to experience my very first Brugmansia blooms and I can hardly contain myself. I hadn't even heard of Brug's until last Fall, thanks to DG. Now, I have five of them, once again because of the generous gift of DG members... It looks like I will only see blooms from one this year, 'Cypress Gardens'. I'm so excited to find out what all of the fuss is about.

What do you think, will these be blooming by the weekend? Longer?

How cool is that? I have my first brug this year... 'Cassie's Curls'... no blooms though... gonna have to get advice on wintering this over too!

Nice photos BTW, Chantell! Are we man-hunting???

Whewww whooo...look at all those buds!!! I think you're close!!!

Ah Karen...(I've said this for years) once I get my butt back to the gym and eating right (read: able to wear pants w/o an elastic waist)...ya'll can help me out...send some possibilities my way...LOL. I'm not picky as you can see..LOL...the smile thing does me in!!

I've never had a frozen fuzzy navel, btw. Does that include frozen fruit? Sounds yummy.

Hi All,
Wrightie gave me a Datura at the swap and it bloomed lastnight.. It is just beautiful... It also has more blooms coming... The white was so white... sounds funny I know... but so true...
You can have Steamy, I really like Taye... I think his smile is to die for....
Susan

I smell a cat fight. Someone make some popcorn (except, make sure it's not that microwave stuff that they're now reporting bad things about) ...

Susan - OMG - that absolutely glows...very pretty!

Truth be known - I prefer Taye as well...but McSteamy's not hard on the eyes either. LOL

"except, make sure it's not that microwave stuff that they're now reporting bad things about"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some Intellectual has been eating microwave popcorn multiple times/day for a hundred years or so and now is very ill as a result of whatever chemical they stick in the stuff to make it "buttery."

Fine then...I'll grab my pot, my oil, and my popcorn and make it my own dang self...like it better any-who-how.
