I spent as much time outside as I possibly could :-) Love the Oxalis, for some reason I just love their simple beauty...and that lush carpet of foliage, just speaks to me of cool, shady forest glades. It's always a treat to see the Ceonothus around town all burst into bloom.scottweberpdxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740930947767329183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335321786750265682.post-76462244958394046172012-04-16T13:12:58.077-07:002012-04-16T13:12:58.077-07:00I've got a lot of that last flower in my garde...I've got a lot of that last flower in my garden, much to my consternation.
