Beautiful pictures! I love how they just pop up in seemingly random abandon. The weather actually feels cooler today, mostly because the humidity is lower and there is a breeze, but for whatever reason, I am loving it.<br />CarolynCarolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04964496426456370797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-8828293233135451892010-08-26T14:58:14.681-05:002010-08-26T14:58:14.681-05:00Yes, yes, yes!

My Granny gave me some years ago and I planted them and they grew for a few years and then I noticed they didn't anymore. Don't know why. But, now I know, I am going to go and buy some and plant them...well, when it's the right time! I think they are so pretty...all spindly and spiky!<br />Thanks, friend!Tonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08699862913139313405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-70290990349804605372010-08-26T09:21:05.448-05:002010-08-26T09:21:05.448-05:00J~

I'd almost forgotten them.RachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-40875329843215269472010-08-26T08:11:28.826-05:002010-08-26T08:11:28.826-05:00Those are so lovely.

Interesting note - out here they are called "naked ladies" since they show no greenry. Actually,to be honest with our drawls, we say "necked" ladies. Thanks for a little lagniappe to start my day.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06549584680327516264noreply@blogger.com
