Haven't seen any hummers yet either, where are they? Sorry about the cold. We had a little frost too, and it's too late even for us. Didn't nip any of my flowers though, they are all close to the house and it must have made a microclimate.Msrobinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16775699203426422697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2597923384752980090.post-41659729755676499802009-05-19T23:54:18.128-04:002009-05-19T23:54:18.128-04:00I was going to guess that the plant was an orchid,...I was going to guess that the plant was an orchid, too.

The good news is that yesterday's 60 degrees and sunshine was perfect for weeding and mulching. The Musician and I were outside from 9-6 yesterday working together in the garden. He's so proud of it now - the man can't stand seeing a weed (lucky for me).<br><br>Is that a terrestrial orchid -- a native orchid in the South?<br><br>CameronCameron (Defining Your Home)http://www.blogger.com/profile/14558874651743241988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2597923384752980090.post-68305965724149394322009-05-19T07:36:00.000-04:002009-05-19T07:36:00.000-04:00Hey Cherry girl !
