Primroses and apple mint.
Primroses and my palm. The palm leaves got a little frosted and burned but it's making a comeback. The silly decoration came with a norfolk pine that died when I let it get too hot.
I think this is a Kalanchoe or some sort of spelling like that!
My hen and chicks.
I have a really nice ivy but the background is icky so will find a better pic to upload. Also have a Xmas cactus that is finally taking hold and growing.
Hope you enjoyed my pics!

Oh those primroses took my breath away, such beautiful colors. We've got mud here, I do have hundreds of snowdrops and species crocus, but I'm looking forward to seeing flowers again.

Thank you! I just pinched back the primroses yesterday. I didn't get pics of them but I also have 6 pansies. I pinched them back also, so not much to show at the moment. Thanks again!!

I love the porch with all the pots full of such colorful flowers. Such a nice relaxing place to sit and soak up some sunshine! I wish we had a porch. I just have a little stoop, I guess it's called. Enough to put a few pots but that's all. Enjoy!

*snork* Got a kick out of the green grass comment! Yep and the grass cutter guy just mowed it on Sunday! It is pretty damp here and the grass stays green most of the time. In the fall, when the two sweet gums lose their leaves, we're knee deep in leaves and it's a pain to rake them up. When their leafed out, it's like a canopy over our deck, very pleasant and cool/calming.
