I became addicted to Azaleas When we lived in Louisiana and South east Texas. They have some beautiful double bloom varieties, but Azaleas have some difficulty surviving hard winters of North Texas. They may last a couple of years and then we have a winter with temps well below freezing and it kills the Azaleas.


Beautiful heads of cabbage. I grew Chinese cabbage this winter and loved it. Next year, I plan growing head cabbage. We eat a lot of it. We had it for dinner tonight. I almost cut about 1/4" off the tip of one finger when my chef's knife went through the cabbage core faster than anticipated. I did learn something though. It is almost impossible to get a band aid unwrapped and applied when one finger is pouring blood like a fire hose. I will take the bandage off in the morning and super glue it back together.
