After the storms. . .

I love this time of year. Green is my favorite color and I love the different shades of green in the new grasses, leaves, and plants. It seems to me that the sky is so much more blue this time of year and there are always bright, white, fluffly clouds!

I put some planters out in front of my studio to try to dress it up a little bit. I bought some type of plant that is supposed to do really well in really dry ground. . . which is good because I'll probably be horrible at watering the plants in the middle of summer. I was told that the hotter and drier it gets, the better the plant does. The flowers are blooming so beautifully right now. . . I can't imagine the plants looking much better than they do now. . . but we'll see this summer!

I had some of this plant (purslane?) in Bham in a sort of "rock" garden. I loved it. Mine had different color flowers.
