Hello, my Friends.
I had to take a break from baking.
Please join me in appreciating the small stuff.

Welcome to Rosie's December Garden.
It's December 9 and the temperatures are in the 60's.
Three days ago, the temp was 81° here.
It's a Froggy Morning!
One of the most perfect roses is Mister Lincoln.
I love it.
The petals, the shape, the color...
all perfect.

My gaillardia/blanket flower is thriving.
Notice the dead heads.
They'll self-seed all over the place.

Beautemous!
Yellow makes me happy.

Assorted larkspur seedlings of unknown coloration.
Fatsia Japonica blooming in the background.
Purple/blue larkspur in foreground -earliest blooming yet.
They usually wait until February and March to flower
and by April they're about 6 feet tall
and come in pinks, blues, whites, lilacs, and purples.

White salvia blooms in the middle.
Rosie always has something blooming and doing!
Oh...
I saw Brutus the BullFrog in my whiskey barrel last Friday!
On Friday, when the temperature was in the 80s,
Middle Hawthorne released Lizzie-the-Anole.
The Hawthorne Boys found Lizzie on the deck two weeks ago.
It was a very cold and windy day.
Poor lizard was weak and near frozen
and a distressed brown in color.
They brought her inside and placed her on my indoor plants
that are in front of the sliding glass door..
Lizzie relaxed and turned a happy, calm green.
She camouflaged extremely well.
She lived on my indoor plants for 2 weeks.
For feedings, Lizzie had a container with small crickets.
I'm sure she's thriving outside now.
