As we were out an about a great chunk of ice hit the car next to me and we were like where did that come from? A quick look up and we saw that chunks of ice were melting and falling from the over head power lines... that we parked under!!!! I was lucky.. i think that would have hurt!!! 😲
My poor Viola or Johnny Jump Ups were literally coated in ice.. I thought they were goners.... but nope the ice melted and they looked fine... like Ice? what ice? ....
And lastly an update on Amaryllis..... Thats StarGazer in the front and finally Glee in the back...Glee is a little darker and the petals are more pointy... StarGazer's petals curl back but not Glee's... Short little Red Lion is just blooming like crazy... all gorgeous!
They were a big hit when we finally had our Christmas party on the 8th... You really don't appreciate how tall they are in these pictures... just amazing... now the trick is to see if i can get them to rebloom next year... :) I hope you've had a wonderful start to your 2025! Hugs! deb
Ice is beautiful here I am still dealing with several inches of thick on the steps up and on the hill up. I was able to clear just few of them today. saw 40's here tomorrow afternoon before we go back to the 20's that will be my window to get out of the house so I can get my car and check the mail box
ReplyDeleteMy amaryallis bloom for me early spring in the house-then when no frost I put them outdoors in their pots-bring them in before the fall frost-and the cycle begins again. I love these blooms too.
happy weekend
