Sometimes it's hard to believe it's Winter living here in the Valley... after living so long in Show Low and never seeing much of anything green thru the Winters there! I so enjoy planting flowers and watching them grow and bloom. So as I was watering this morning, I thought I would take a picture! So to all my family and friends in the snow country...these are for you...Enjoy and don't forget to "Take time to smell the roses" (even if it is in a floral dept of the grocery store!)
I love this wintery phrase and can only use it maybe 6 weeks here.. and by afternoons it's not valid.
These seem to be doing quite nicely.
These have been actually growing 2 years and are finally blooming for the first time ever! Flower shops use them in bouquets..not sure what they are???
I love to sit in my swing and look at our grapefruit trees.. I used climb them in the orchards when I was a kid...good times!
They are loaded this year! Anyone out there in need of some grapefruit?

Yes, I love the winters in the valley. Come summer though all our stuff will be dead & they will be reaping the rewards of great weather. I guess you get the best of both worlds though, huh? I think they are either narcissus or paper whites if I remember right.
Beautiful! You guys always have nice flowers, trees, etc. wherever you are.
You are so lucky to have grapefruit trees! I wish we had the same winters here although sometimes a good snow storm is fun.
wow, to have flowers in February. That's amazing. It's so beautiful there this time of year. I can't tell about the flowers. They look kind of like stefanotis (not sure how to spell it) but I can't really tell if that is what they are in the picture. Marcy probably knows better than I do.
I don't know if you remember me or even know me but I was good friends with Melissa. I live over here in Eagar. Karlee,Mandy, Melissa and I spent lots of good fun times together. She was such a sweet beautiful girl and I feel so blessed and so lucky to have known her. Even if it was for a short while. What a beautiful family you have!
