Spring Stirrings

Impulses are moving right along. Nelumbo in her blog The Garden Blog (of a gal growing Southern) has wonderful scientific rational to plant all those different varieties of the same flower. The entry talks about how insects see different segments of the rainbow and what is wonderful for some is the bane of others.

This weekend, I also got a belated birthday present. Attracting Butterflies and Hummingbirds to Your Backyard. I'm having lots of fun reading it!

And, there seems to be a flower bud on my Hibiscus. Whee! This would make the first time it's bloomed since I moved to Maryland.
