You Made It

In previous years the Cyprus Vine was always late in making a showing.
But there were always many sprouting in the garden.

This year its appearance was not normal just like many other dependable plants.
Four surfaced from the earth and were guarded.  Two have not even grown but
pleased that two have not been a disappointment.

Early this morning the first bloom was spotted.

I smiled as I saw this little bloom.

Simple pleasures are sometimes the best....

    My mother used to have these growing on her front porch. Hadn't seen one in years! So special to see it!

    Hi Ernestine...This little surprise is so special. Isn't it amazing how tough tiny plants can be? Going through bad weather and little rain and still sending forth a tiny blossom?

    Have a nice day...
