I just purchased two bougenvillas for the backyard which we have completely relandscaped.

I have a feeling you have hotter summers and warmer winters than we do though, as we can't grow orange trees here, too many freezing nights. I grew up by the ocean though, and I remember that fragrance. It's wonderful. I loved all you beautiful photos.<br />Have a glorious Easter.<br />Blessings,<br />MarciaSimple Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09655741174904816921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-20217461335350549142010-04-03T22:02:31.946-07:002010-04-03T22:02:31.946-07:00Oh So Pretty, Sandy.

Believe it or not-it's 82-degrees here in Pittsburth today, almost 30-degrees above the average for this time of year. Not complaining here! No sir!<br />When you wrote about your orange tree my mind could immediately recall the smell of the blossoms..heavenly! My step-mom left on the 31st to go back to Canada until next November.<br />I wanted to comment on your last post with the Pyrex ware. That last picture made me laugh! My kitchen in my first apartment in the late 60's was avocado and turquoise! Think that would keep you up at night? Yikes!<br />Enjoy your lovely garden..I sure do wish I could come and have a cookie and some tea with you. (Fortunately for you, I don't care for peeps so you don't need to share them with me-LOL!)<br />xoxo<br />JoyceScrap for Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198495711815578352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-48216951034577020822010-04-03T09:56:12.889-07:002010-04-03T09:56:12.889-07:00Your garden is sweet.

I'm looking at snow and dried grass coming through it. This I will have into the end of May. Spring in Alaska is a very shy girl not wanting to peek her head out anytime soon. I'm always loved those bougenvillias they are just brilliant. I saw them a lot in Baja when we visited years ago.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210269243259892285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634971010185114820.post-17160226154761141672010-04-03T09:36:56.699-07:002010-04-03T09:36:56.699-07:00Sandy,
