    I love all the splashes of purple in your garden. I like all the 'birds' too - I'm sure they do a very good job of protecting your plants.

    My garden is filling up with weeds. Ha ha. I love your bird spinners. They are lots of fun. And the purple and blue pansies are stunning. Have a wonderful day. Cooler and it's really windy at my house.

      We have a bit of a breeze. Just nice enough to open up the windows and not run the AC

    Except for a few touch ups....the weeds in the gutters have been decimated whew! and half the front yard too... I have to use the weed killer on the other half of the front yard and around the fence in the backyard... not having to weedeat the fence line..yes! Love your bird spinners! I always do better with pansies in the Spring into Summer than Fall into Winter.. You? Hugs! deb

      Up here pansies are cold weather plants and don't do well in the heat. Shhhh, don't tell Himself. The bird spinners came from Lowes or was it Home Depot?

    Oh yes they are cold weather plants here too but i do better with them going from early cold Spring until it gets too hot instead of getting them in the Fall and trying to go through Winter with them... they just seem to look better and last longer the first way.. :)

    I love your bird helpers They are wonderful and colorful. They will help protect your plants.

    Irises here have bloomed and gone. Shows how far behind your spring season is to mine.
