Quote From A Recent Visitor to China

China has a way of growing on you and you will never leave the same person you were when you arrived. 

Morning Glory From Changchun

Blooming this morning in my yard

The Kiffar Lily

The beautiful Kiffar Lily is Chang Chun City Flower. I have one these precious plants from there. It was a gift from a family member who has lived there his whole life. I have been watching carefully for a scape. When I was about to conclude it would not open this year due to a transplant I did last fall to my delight and amazement up popped a scape loaded with buds! Over the next few weeks it will bloom and fill the living room with the most wonderful color.

I texted China yesterday to share this with them.
