I know, I know…amazing, huh? But I might have been wrong. Don’t tell SuperGuy though! I’ll never hear the end of it.
Look what I found outside my front door!
A darling purple flower. Yes, in the ground cover that I’ve begged SuperGuy to pull out. We even had a ground cover poll in hopes to convince SuperGuy that it had to go, remember that? (You guys voted that if he kept it he should buy me camera stuff… :love: Love ‘ya guys!)
Anyway, it’s starting to fill in again. (which will annoy me later this spring when it chokes out my daffodils and tulips…but I digress…) But for now, it has pretty little purple flowers on it. I love anything with color this time of year!
Yes, if SuperGuy see this he’s going to say “I told you so.” Sigh. Hate that. :mad2:
In other news. I updated the WordPress plugin for the polls that I use on this blog. I broke all the old polls. :angry: They changed something in the code to make it compatible with something in the newer versions of WordPress. I had to go back and find each poll, edit the post, and manually change the code for each poll. Took forever. :wallbash: I was exhausted and forced to go sit down and have a Blue Moon. :beer: The things I do for you guys. :crazy: ( I appear to be on a smilie roll today… :coffee2: )
(If you missed yesterday’s post, go hop back and read it. I announced the theme for the photo of the month contest for March).
LOL!! I didn’t see that other post, and I would have said the same thing – it may have a flower attached, and yes, they are very pretty, but it is very invasive!! Anything that invasive is a WEED!! I thought they were very pretty in Mom’s yard, so I transplanted quite a few to my yard — AAAAAAGGGGHHHH……. I have since ripped up and transplanted down the hill (for erosion control, I say!)
I am so sorry about your broken polling thing. That sucks.
I like Blue Moon beer. Very nice.
Love the photo! I must say I’m a bit jealous with you finding such a flower! We hardly broke the 30’s today! 🙁
There’s something at my blog for you!
Yeah, sometimes the guys are right, but only rarely!
Whats the name of that flower?
Eliza, I’m not sure…
The purple flower is creeping myrtle also called periwinkle or vinca minor. I have it in a shady area and enjoy it every spring. In the 42 years I have lived here it has not spread any further. I have a border of hosta between it and the lawn. Works great!
