In just ten days!

My grapevine is one plant/tree/vine that I really enjoy watching. The more I water it, the more it grows. Last year was the first year that is actually produced little grapes. We were so excited! Lena especially...everytime we came in or out of the house she would pull a couple off and eat them. I'm excited to see what it dies this year!

Just ten days ago my grapevine looked like this...


Today it looks like this...


And this little bud...


Is now this...


These little leaves...


Now look like this...


And do you see that little speck of blue in the right side of the picture?


It's one little bitty lonely bluebonnet!

I wish I could say my rose bush from CC is doing as good as the grapevine...but it's not. And that makes me so sad. I think it needs some TLC. It got super soaked when it rained real hard so I pulled it in real quick and tried to let it dry out. Water was just spilling out on my kitchen floor. I added some dry soil and then turned the drier soil to the bottom and the wet soil to the top. It just doesn't look good. The few leaves it does have are wilted and just sad looking. CC gave this rosebush to me as a gift and it is so special to me. If you know anything about roses please give me any advice! I would greatly appreciate it!
