It's becoming annoying.<BR/><BR/>@ guppyman, thanks for the welcome. I have an entry from February where I posted about not being able to catch the ( <A HREF="http://mrbrownthumb.blogspot.com/2007/02/senecio-rowleyanus.html" REL="nofollow">String of Pearls enty</A> )blooming. In the background of the spent flower you can see the growth pattern of the plant. This one I don't have a photo of yet-I'll have to take some and update my entry on my C&S collection. But it has longer (like a banana) leaves in comparison to the round ones in that pic. It should do good in Texas because they like a lot of light.<BR/><BR/>@ Carol, I hadn't thought of that :) but you're right. Maybe it could be switched on and off in browsers for stinky entries.<BR/><BR/>@ Garden Momma,<BR/><BR/>Glad to have your company in my first week of GTS. I had been planning on joining for a while but decided to wait until I was done playing with my garden blog template before adding blog rolls. Thanks for the compliment on the photos.
