Freesias Are Blooming

The freesias are blooming in the garden.  I look forward to the sight and smell of these flowers each spring.

Free Bird of Paradise by Mail


Photo: Free Bird of Paradise", Free Plant of the Month by freeplantsbymail.org

Free Plants By Mail (freeplantsbymail.org) was started by local growers as a way to use the surplus plants from nurseries and also as a way to support The Nature Conservancy.  Free Plants By Mail offers a new free plant each month.  This month they are offering Bird of Paradise plant.  The Bird of Paradise flower resembles a bird that is poking out of the leaves.  Although the plant itself is free, you do have to pay a small shipping and handling fee of $6.95.
This organization also has over 100 plants available for sale on their site.  100% of the proceeds from the sale will go to The Nature Conservancy.
