mmmmmm spring in Nashville,
where the Southern Magnolia's that haven't been touched scent the air, older
neighborhood houses yards have Quince starting to bud,

Yup, the Quince is fixing to bloom in my front yard. There's one
honeysuckle bloom that smells delicious at Sevier Park - it's an early
variety that wakes up the bees.

soon the old
fashioned bridal veil Spirea that is planted along the "hell strips" between
the sidewalks and streets will start forming buds..............yes, I grew
up in Inglewood. On Greenfield Avenue which turns into Riverside Drive.
Shelby Park is where I got my clump of Zebra grass....LOL I'm sure Dr.
Shelby had quite a laugh seeing me hidden in the 8 foot tall clump at the
back of the park near the Cumberland River where the railroad tressle is,
digging frantically while my son hunkered down in the truck all freaked out
that I was DOING this............................and no, I don't recommend
EVER doing this.

I admit to bringing home Moth Mullien, Venus's Looking Glass and
Shepards Purse from Ft. Negley, but it would have been mowed down so I
felt no guilt.
