Rare white flowering Sophora secundiflora growing where I work

This photo was taken right before sunrise.

Pretty much the same photo, just as the sun is coming up.

Close-up of the flowers. In case you're wondering, these smell just as nice as the
more common purple flowers (I want to say they smell even stronger,
but it's possible that I was enamored by the pure white blooms).

Trellis Made of Bike Wheels

The Bignonia capreolata (Crossvine) will grow nicely on this south-facing wall,
giving the window some afternoon shade.

I love this idea!

Awesome Christmas Present

Crassula ovata 'Gollum'
One of my favorite Christmas presents this year was this awesome planter made by artist Diana Moulds.  I had the perfect plant for it, too.  My husband gave me this Crassula a few months ago, but I hadn't found the right pot for it yet. Thank you, Jessie Byrd and Charlie Belk!
