Very nice! For me, Spring means hope.

Here's hoping for an extra special Spring for all of us. :heart:

Oh I am so glad the Lord gave you 'the whiff' too. I know exactly that smell combined with that wonderful exhilarating feeling of the hope of Spring. So happy you were blessed with this!

We gots those flowering bulbs too :yes:  We just have to wait 3 more looooooong months before they appear. :stinkerbell:   On the bright side … I finally got my drivers side door open. :yahoo:    And it looks  like 1/2 inch of snow/ice melted.  Man, if this keeps up … I “might” be able to see my sidewalk and driveway by … “Friday”.  B-)

Hey Arthur I just received by mail, two plants I ordered. one is a King Blue Nymphaea (Asian Tropical water lily,  King Blue Tropical Water Lily Tuber Live Plant for | Etsy.
the other one is a Powder Puff Mimosa plant
Powderpuff Sunshine Mimosa https://www.etsy.com/listing/1153538256/powderpuff-sunshine-mimosa-live-plant?ref=yr_purchases

So I am nursing it today. Need to clean my nasty house but maybe tomorrow. the plats take priority

Awwww...I'm sorry Geri. 🙁

I really did smell the whiff of Spring and had to share. I suppose it's not the same for everyone. :wacko:

I've been there. When I lived at 61 degrees North, Spring didn't seem to start until May and you'd even get snow in June, sometimes. Lol.

Here's hoping for extra special Spring for you when it comes. :good:

Wow! Very nice! I can't really grow tropical water lilies here but I do grow the normal kind at my sister's place in the country.

I do have a Mimosa tree but I am not sure what kind it is. It is struggling a bit but it looks nice with a honeysuckle rambling through it. :wacko:

Anyway, love is in the air! Happy gardening. It was the first and best occupation/hobby. 😉

I love the smell of Rapture in the Springtime!

Now if anyone can figure out why God loves us so, please let me know!

your water lily is beautiful! This powder puff plant is not a mimosa tree but a lovely plant that bonsai's well but I'm not doing that. This one is for Mike because his other one kicked the bucket

Thank you. They thrive on neglect and are as tough as nails. They also spread like crazy. Gonna have to get in there and divide them again. Lol. My kind of plant. :good:

Ahhh...ok. Is it a sensitive plant, then? My Mimosa has the same leaf pattern but doesn't close when you touch it.
