I keep posting the same flowers so I thought I would do Bloomin' Tuesday a little different this time. If you would like to join this meme, and WE would love for you too, or just to view what may or maynot be blooming with winter on our heels click on the Bloomin' Tuesday Banner to the right of my page!

Beautiful pictures, Darla. I love African Violets. I used to have the perfect window for them to thrive (in another home)... I don't have a good place now--so I'll just have to look at yours and drool... Hope you don't get a freeze down there. We are 25 this morning. Brrrr!!!
You have me so beat with flowers. Your poor man NEVER gets to rest. My flowers was well mixed in with why I did not want to move. Don't have to now. YES!!!!

Your plants look so nice,it will be great to have a flower shed wish I had one.Your African Viloet is beautiful mine is blooming but not that many blooms on mine.
HI Darla, what pretty pictures you posted of your garden. A cold freeze is expected? I didn't know you guys got that cold back there? Our freak freeze usually comes in January or February. I like your Aloe plant and your African Violets. I have not been very sucessful with African Violets.
Happy Bloomin' Tuesday

Beautiful long views of your garden beds Darla. That little playhouse is going to make a charming garden shed for you! :)
That's a lot of varieties of flowers and plants, Darla. I love plants, but probably don't have that many varieties in my garden.
Freeze in Florida? That's something new to me. Which part of Florida is Floweville?
BTW, thank you for commenting on my blog yesterday.

Darla, That Aloe is such a healthy looking plant. It's such a great plant to have around.
Yes we are expecting to break records tonight!! I have pots and pots and pots over my most recent planted flowers......will see what happens.
Your garden and all these flowers are just wonderful! I love the header shot...so green and summer looking! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Okay, when I need help with my garden you're the one I visit, right?!! thanks for stopping by. I've never heard of Flowerville, FL, that's somewhere near....????
I love plants too and I don't have many collection like you did.Wow!!!
beautiful, Thanks for sharing and also Thank You for viewing my blog.
Have a nice day.
The Surinam Cherry is a new plant for me. It does look like a good hedge shrub. Do you eat the fruit right from the shrub, or is it used in making jams and jellies?

Darla: What a neat set of plants you have shown today. I love your Aloe Plant.
That aloe is beautiful! I just have the plain old common one, but the pattern on yours is gorgeous!
