Usually our cold weather lasts a *little* longer and kills off some of the emerging buds. This year it didn't. <br /><br />I so love the smell of star jasmine!Kynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13222304237028745181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-53352715911859601022011-04-21T13:56:23.864-04:002011-04-21T13:56:23.864-04:00gorgeous and stunning garden...gorgeous and stunning garden...Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13420133886162844400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-3583188147839545852011-04-20T10:17:43.121-04:002011-04-20T10:17:43.121-04:00Hi there!

I have some big holes that the flattening of the image hides! It is the view from my backdoor though, so I sort of plant for that effect. I missed the rose flush though, waiting for the hydrangeas to get leaves on them for this picture.<br /><br />The jasmine does look decent I'll admit, though for this climate I'll have to show you what its supposed to look like (and everyone elses in town looks like) and you'll see why I think he's looking wimpy.<br /><br />Being ahead here is actually a wonderful thing, because we have the great death by heat in July and August where its just miserable to sit outside. Then we have second garden time in September-Early Dec. So, the earlier I have flowers the longer I can enjoy them without dying out there. When I lived in the north though, I never wanted anything out early. All at once, all in May!Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524574998937986323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-66413836261769979162011-04-20T06:05:13.144-04:002011-04-20T06:05:13.144-04:00Jess, Your garden is very beautiful.

Your garden is lovely. My husband and I lived in Mt. Pleasant for 15 years before I retired from teaching and we moved to his hometown.

My jasmine isn't doing so well as a certain puppy dog decided to use one of the large branches as a chew toy. I'm not sure if I'm going to take the pathetic thing down or not. <br /><br />Your garden is just lovely!
