I dodnt know what the exact kind is...I googled them, lots of kinds of crabapples....I nevr saw them in IL so I am not sure they re hardy for your area. Bardford pears bloom white, so pretty, like the shadblows...and do not have fruit.Lizzy Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925662100321427762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-3879909297475698412013-05-21T20:37:23.463-04:002013-05-21T20:37:23.463-04:00I think your quilt looks fine!

It's cute!<br /><br />The fiddlehead ferns are so cool! I grew a fern that came out like that one year, but it gets so hot so quick here they were only cutely curled up for about a day. And they didn't survive the winter, either.<br /><br />Do you (or anyone else?) know what the shrubs are with the little powder-puff pink flowers are? The flowers are so pretty! Oh - we lost all the plantings on the south side of our house between the winter and last summer's drought. My wigelea bush, 4 burning bushes, and a maiden-grass clump, plus some old rose-of-Sharon bushes.... Very sad! I don't know what we're going to replant there now.<br /><br />In the next to last photo the white sand looks almost like snow! Hope you don't get TOO bad of weather. Here it's been stormy a little but so far we've been lucky and the worst has gone around us!<br /><br />Take care!<br />M.<br />Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17248202844330247654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-72999798215260719472013-05-21T14:11:29.118-04:002013-05-21T14:11:29.118-04:00Keep it, you may find a dazzling idea for enhancin...Keep it, you may find a dazzling idea for enhancing it. it is really quite pretty.<br /><br />The fiddleheads are neat. Don't seem to grow in our zone --9/10.<br /><br />Fog on the beach is so relaxing and calming. It is hard to hold onto stress when walking in a fog on the beach.

I have often put blocks away thinking I was going to redo them only to like them when I looked at them again. (My Dear Jane blocks are a fine example.)<br /><br />We're our own harshest critics, aren't we?<br /><br />What beautiful photos.<br /><br />I miss fog at the beach. I used to love to sit on the beach when the fog was so dense that the sound bounced all around. It was often so thick in central California that you couldn't even tell the way to the ocean.<br /><br />Take care and I hope you have a great evening.<br /><br />HunterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
