We found this plant inside the greenhouse and surprised how it was blooming.  Now it outside on the wagon.  

Happy Mother’s Day to all.  I get to share the day with many of the moms.  Yesterday 2 gardeners came that have been coming for years.  One was 87 and the other 84.  Always gardeners at heart.  It was so good seeing them. As I say I get pleasure in growing the plants and seeing how well they grow.  But my favorite part is the gardeners.  Each one of you, I enjoy visiting with, and catching up on you.  You are my garden of friends. 
Today is cool, but still a perfect spring day.  Few white cumulus clouds with the blue sky.  NNW wind at 17MPH but we are sheltered from that direction, so it doesn’t seem that windy.  High today 68F(20C) ENJOY and stay safe.
 
Australia family and friends for Monday May 11 will have 66F(19C) Similar temperatures for us and them.  They do celebrate Mother’s Day on Sunday. ALL friends and families have a Happy Mother’s Day one day later.  ENJOY and stay safe.
 
In this greenhouse, you wouldn’t think that plants could hide.  But we found these sunflowers plants so happy blooming and now they are on a wagon.  These are new for me to grow.  I love looking at them on the wagons, in the breeze with their happy flowers.  They only grow 24” so that should be fun to grow.  Use it as a cut flower.  Have you grown this one in your garden?  Let us know.
