Still, they are rather tough flowers, despite how they look. They'd have to be to grow here as we horrible, horrible soil!Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109785080000770963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024991967988557735.post-16290147448418853292012-01-08T08:32:12.803-08:002012-01-08T08:32:12.803-08:00Dear Mrs. Micawber,

Now what movie does that remind me of? Ha! Wayne's World!<br /><br />I love the little pine - it looks exactly like Charlie Brown's Christmas tree. May it grow tall and strong.<br /><br />Yes, there is a sort of void after Christmas - especially when the decorations come down. That's why I leave mine up as long as I possibly can.<br /><br />I hope you get some sunshine soon. It's so much easier to be cheerful when the sun is shining.Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024991967988557735.post-46177882432518592952012-01-07T19:57:19.275-08:002012-01-07T19:57:19.275-08:00Hurray for the pine trees!
