  • I know I’ve shown you my Oxalice before, but I do like it.  It’s probably because it has large clover-like leaves that are purplish and tiny little pale pink flowers.  The green is a sedum that Alice sent home with me years ago.  I planted it at the old house and it flourished.  Then when we moved to this house almost 3 years ago, there was some of the sedum in a couple of the large pots.  I planted it in my current yard and it’s really taken off here too.  It’s a prolific little plant. 


    The kids arrive late tonight with our only grandchild.  We’ll have her for a whole week.  I wonder how spoiled she could get in just one week’s time. As my son says . . . we’ve earned the right.

  • What cute flowers!  Have a super week with your son and his family!

  •  OH you’re going to have lots of fun! I love playing with Scooby and CareBear. My granddaughters ages 4 and 1 :sunny: :sunny:

  • Have a great week with Trin, Chris. I’m sure she will have a fun time at Grandma’s house.

  • Both sedum and oxalis are prolific little plants. If you ever get tired of them (don’t know why you would), just try to erradicate them. Impossible! Mike

  • The purple leaves are beautiful!  Enjoy spoiling your grandchild, and have a happy 4th of July!  :sunny:

  • Hi Chris,

    How old is your granddaughter?  My grandsons are 11 & 8.  They usually spend a week with me but if they come this year it will have to be for a long weekend because I’ve used all my vacation.  Pretty soon they’ll be too old to want to spend a week with grandma!

  • Will that grow in pots in the sun here in TX?  I need to find something that will!

    Enjoy the Grandchild!
