fawning over flora

Some wonderful news from our porch...

My hydrangea's first bloom!

It was almost half its current size when I bought this plant.











The geraniums are not to be outdone.








There are three others that are flowering right now. I didnt get good shots of them because my camera's macro wasn't working. One is the lavender with its cute white flowers. The other I forgot the name but has tiny pink ones. Last is a succulent kind of crawling plant that has little red blooms.

I'm feeling proud. I sort of have a green thumb as it turns out. I cant wait for my plants to bloom some more, that way I wont have to spend so much on flowers for the house.

This bouquet cost me $8.99 at Costco...but it's the kind of cliche I willingly buy cos honestly, they do brighten up the room, the mood and everything.
