spring (part 2)

botan flower (have no idea what it's called in english)

they came out with this kind of pansy this year. they call it ricka-chan pansy. ricka-chan is a japanese version of barbie.

added bonus while watering my garden in the morning is that i hear this:
uguisu

whenever i hear it, i think about my dad calling(whistling) for me.

Thank for you roomba product review! =)
The white flower is a peony, I love those, So Calif is too hot for them.

Beautiful! How funny... I was going to post a 2nd plant post as well because I just bought 2 more houseplants this weekend!

That big white flower is lovely! Are the purple/yellow ones tiger lillies?

rly: yes, please DO post your part 2 of your houseplants. the purple/yellow ones are pansies...

rly: wow, moss as carpet? veeeeery interesting! that would be unique to have one in our living room... but i think monaka would use it as her dump site. lol!
