Subject: RE: Favorite Flowers and yard decor
I'm not much of a horticulturalist, but I just had to add that here, near the banks of the St. Johns river in northern Florida, the white jasmine blooming at my front door smell nearly as sweet as the naval oranges which blossomed 8 weeks ago in my back yard. Particularly at night, the jasmine fragrance is nearly overwhelming. My day lillies are budding, a good two weeks from full blossom, and my pink, bright red, and violet crepe myrtles are a good month away from blooming. It's 90 degrees here today...ah, spring in Jacksonville...

Blessings,

Paul G.
