My start...

I am so fortunate to have a wonderful mother-in-law and her three sisters living in our soon-to-be homeland!  They have graciously allowed me to invade their own garden and plant stuff!  Some of it is for their enjoyment, and some will go with us to our new home. 

On our last visit there, I bought these:

My lovely bougainvillea nestled in nicely in the Aunties' garden, and they tell me they are doing wonderfully well since.  I hope by the time we move there, these beauties are ready to transplant into our yard.
