One of M´s favorite people - avi Enric

newbies

my wisteria seeds sprouted!! I asked my father-in-law Enric to bring some seeds from a neighboring garden last year. Now all I have to do is wait 15 years for it to become a tree and flower!!


finally, a white morning glory...

I wanted to see what Syriana Hibiscus looks like, so I bought one...from LIDL! and here it is, after waiting forever for it to flower, and it was immediately eaten by something :(

Dress Sanchís - merci, oncle José

M´s got a new toy, a spanking new tractor (yes, quite butch of us, I know). As you can see here,
she´s yet to figure out what the conventional way of riding one looks like.




here´s M deadheading her favorite white flowers

then pretending it´s a treat to attract Skippy
