We are almost there. The cemetery whites are blooming, plum, peach, violets and a few columbine.

2010 before that weird storm we had.

    Beautiful plants! And that Punkin'...guess they grew it from seeds, huh? We don't have any of that variety. Very pretty eyes!

    Linda, Thanks, that's my great grandson. I am a bit proud to have him, even if he is an Okie. His mother is my oldest gdaughter.
    BTW email me your snail address and I will send you loofah seeds. Barbra said you were wanting some.
    I ordered seeds for the eating kind, but have yet to receive them. If they taste like I remember from 40 years ago, I'll save those seeds also. Back then it tasted like okra.

    pretty pictures, Kathy ! Thanks so much for posting. I wish I had as many baby columbines as you do. They are from you, but I want more ! I love them !

    The rose on the arbor is bee-YOO-tee-ful !

    how are your nanners doing ? Mine froze pretty far down, but I think they will be coming back. Luckily I cleaned off the dead leaves just before my dog broke the leg !

    pretty little punkin there, too ! Got any seeds ?? tee hee

    please post pictures if you have them. I'm stuck on the couch and wanna see what your gardens are looking like. Last year's pictures are good enough for me !!

    Do you want me to pot up columbines for you?

    Kathy....uhhh...I... uhhh... moved. Yeah, that's right ! I moved ! They'll never find me now ! Too bad... and you probably spent all that money, too !

    glad you get to see punkn tomorrow ! or was it today ?

    Jim, thanks for sharing. Do you have your pictures any place else ? I know you've got some good ones to look at ! I love clivias. I've been wanting a yellow one for ages ! I've had one of these forever, and have been propagating the seeds for years. I hate that they only bloom once a year, but it's great when they put on a show like yours !

    Carrie, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are ya sending me one ??? YIPPPEE !

    Kathy, what wonderful photos of your family!

    PA, how do you do thumbnails from Photobucket now?

  • princealbert
    13 years ago

    roselee,
    you have to physicaly drag over the link highlighting it to copy and paste to the forum.
    I use the second block down "HTML THUMB" is the block name.
    I hope it works for you.
    pa

  • roselee z8b S.W. Texas

    PA, this is weird. I don't have a block under my photos that says "HTML THUMB". The second one down says "DIRECT LINK"

    I use the "HTML code" for large pictures. I used to check the box under the picture, go to the bottom right and click on something (forgot what it said, but it is no longer there) and a thumbnail code was created.

    I tried the "IMG Thumb" and it doesn't work for GW.

    This is how the codes are lined up on my Photobuck Account:

    Email & IM
    Direct link
    HTML code
    IMG code
    IMG thumb

    Any ideas anyone?

  • roselee z8b S.W. Texas
    13 years ago

    Jim, I just did a quick check with your album linked above and your codes are lined up like this:

    Email & IM
    Direct link
    HTML code
    HTML thumb
    IMG code

    I don't understand why our album links are arranged differently and my album does not have a "HTML thumb" code.

  • bossjim1

    Roselee, logon to your photobucket account. Click on your user name, in the top right hand corner. Select Account settings, then select Album settings. Under Link settings, you can select, or unselect thumbnails settings. Then at the bottom of the page, save.

    Hey Albert ! Of course I know them ! Some of my favorite swappers ! Hope I see them this year. Are you guys planning to come ?

    Jim, thanks for the idea. I'll do that ! Thanks also for sending me a link for your pictures. I'll be looking at some tonight and tomorrow and the next day, ad infinitum.

    I did get to be outside for a little while today. I was worried about the roses I planted before I was blindsided. I just wanted to hold the water hose for a bit. Made me feel better to get a little vitamin D, but it also wore me out !

    patty,
    We have not completely decided yet. We are planning a move to the coast, and I already have 3 trailers full of plants to move down there. :( or :) it depends on how you look at it.

    Plantmaven Kathy those are nice pictures, but except for the arches with roses (and who wouldn't want that :-) your yard already looks pretty much like the photos.
