Here is something a little different. May seem trite but I found it amusing so here it is. A few years ago I took a plant out of my mother's yard and planted it in my own. It was a violet covered flower that I really liked and thought that since there were two, we could both have one. It grew and grew and this was 8 or so years ago. Now it stands 15 feet or so but has done nothing. Didn't have a clue as to what it was and since I initally thought it was a plant I put it right next to the house. Too close and crowded the house so I thought of chopping it down last spring. A few minutes ago I was out refereeing between my two dogs since one has decided she likes to beat the other one up. I walked past this growth and looked down for some reason and there, on the ground, beneath it was an apple. How do you like that? I am really happy. Apple trees don't grow real well here in central Texas and rarely see one. Now I have my own. Just wanted to share that with someone. thanks for listening.
