Ahhhhhhh...........shopping!

We went to our favorite nursery...



Right away I embarrassed Kim by taking photos...he's a bit too easily embarrassed, don't you think? As you can see, it is sooooo easy to spend money here...





Kim's trying to decide which peony we need...



He thinks our cart is full...



If you have some cement pillars sitting around you don't know what to do with...



His advice to us...buy catnip. Kim's advice to him, run or she'll take your picture!



I didn't buy any of these gloxinias but I thought they were beautiful...




Very satisfying day. We came home and Kim planted the tree and shrub above the stream. I planted the perennials I bought, the annuals will have to wait until the threat of frost has passed. We're going to dinner tonight; should I really annoy Kim and take the camera???

Beautiful pix...

Peonies are my favorite perenial. Too bad they only bloom for a short time in the spring. My are starting to come up already...I can't wait.

I loved this trip to Edwards, what fond memories it brings back. I'm so glad you got the Perennial Lady in the background of one of your shots along the sidewalk with the hanging plants. Thank you for doing this trip to Edwards -- I loved it.

What beautiful pictures. Seeing the greenhouse and you guys shopping for plants really makes me want all the more to get outside. I already have been wanting to get into the flower beds but cannot yet because of the ankle.Your pictures really makes me realize all the more my wanting to get outside. Hope you take pictures when things get planted.
