Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day - December 2013
Here's what's blooming in my Austin, Texas garden this December 15th. Sub-freezing temperatures last week knocked out everything but these five bloomers:
gray globemallow (Sphaeralcea incana),
Pacific chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum pacificum),
a single, quarter-sized 'Fairy' rose,
a tangle of sugar snap peas in the veggie garden,
and, from inside the pop-up greenhouse, a cluster of gloriously-scented Meyer lemon blossoms.

Very pretty. Sub freezing temps can sure knock a garden back, can't it? Thanks for joining in for bloom day.
