Spring in the Greenhouse

My first Calla lilies of 2008.
The geranium also decided to add a beautiful bloom.

I have been pampering my plants in the greenhouse all winter and now is the payoff. The room was built just for this Calla lily plant and it really seems to like the spot. I even have a tangerine plant that I am hoping will give a few pieces of fruit, it is looking promising. But, I have had fresh sage, oregano, rosemary and mint all winter which as been aromatic and enjoyable. My California plants are all doing well and I added Bird of Paradise this last trip down, so I am hoping that it will add a few blooms in the fall too. It has been a real bright spot through the winter and I am really glad that we decided to build that in.

Mom, the flowers look so pretty! Mine are blooming right now too and I love them! Thank you for my plants! Every time I look at them I am reminded of you and Grandma Pitt! (pretty cool for just one flower) :-)
