Sure! You can also post any of (OOPS!) or the birds on this page as well, if you'd like.

Please credit the pix to Bill. I'd love it if you put a link to The Garden Helper on your site!

Thank you... [kissies]

I was lucky enough to see the cyclamen today, and the greatest thing about it is that it's such a surprise! These perfect little pink flowers behind a curtain of vines... beautiful! [thumb]

I planted it early last Spring. It laid dormant and unseen all Summer until it popped back to life today. [grin]

Bill, that is such a wonderful place to have planted that flower!! I think I said once before that you have the soul of a poet. You see things in your mind that we don't see in reality, and you bring it forth!!! Wonderful. If I go out to visit my kids in seattle again, could I come and visit your wonderful Cedar Hill and wile away a few hours in your Hummingbird House?!
