The Blooming House

Click it or go HERE. Ironically, her name is Mrs. Strange. I don't think it's a stretch to say the woman knows how to propogate Begonias.

Pretty. But my least favorite flower. Too much thick stem. I am not a fan. But good for her.

Beautiful!! But I'd only want it if she came with it to keep it up! I don't have the patience for that but I would appreciate it!

I love it, but, it would look pretty depressing in winter. They have water lines installed, but, who weeds up there?

I would love to have this in my yard, but it would just be a dream.
I wonder what happens in the winter? I would cry if I saw all this dead. Do you think she starts over every year?

Never been a fan of begonias. Too thick of stems. Always look boney to me. Naw, this is too much work. I swear, she must have to work everyday all day on that. Those suckers have to be pinched back everyday and require lots of water. Mine never did well in Indiana. Maybe it's too hot here. This IS the new Saraha, afterall.

Holy Cow! That's a lot of flowers! I can appreciate the hard work and the time they put in to it but I really don't like it. I hate to say that because of the time involved but, come on! I wonder about how much mold and mildew is behind all of that stuff that's creeped on to the house. You know I love a stone house. It's a beautiful house. Why hide it?

This is a touch over the top. Almost creepy.

Yep, it is. People say that about my house by August and I tend to agree. I still like it though. All those flower boxes would rot here and you'd have a mess. I do love me some begonias though.
