I live in South Texas and it turned out if I left it alone - didn't over fertalize or over water - it would do ok. Go figure! <br /><br />Good luck with yours!Angelanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539677025266761617.post-42188163428929883642010-10-26T21:29:51.062-06:002010-10-26T21:29:51.062-06:00I wore contacts for many years, starting at age 10...I wore contacts for many years, starting at age 10. They were great, as Gina says, for peripheral vision and not fogging up, also they didn't get crushed against my face whenever I hugged someone. Unfortunately, I had to give them up when I moved to NM. The key to comfort with contacts is keeping them well moisturized, and I just wasn't able to do that living in the desert. I may go back to them if I ever move somewhere else.<br /><br />The gardenia is gorgeous! Thank you for showing it.Mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966487848401662776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539677025266761617.post-85953564080718780862010-10-26T14:15:12.931-06:002010-10-26T14:15:12.931-06:00Just like Gina, I have worn hard contacts since I...Just like Gina, I have worn hard contacts since I was 14. I'll second all the advantages she listed, and also appreciate them as an aesthetic improvement. For me all the misery of the first two weeks when my eyes wouldn't even open all the way with the contacts in, all the washing and soaking and cleaning they require, and the scares of dropping them on the floor have been worth it. Never looked back!tatterjilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12775215726874191646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539677025266761617.post-73442972548808605422010-10-26T11:16:04.275-06:002010-10-26T11:16:04.275-06:00Love seeing flowers any time in the year!
I'...Love seeing flowers any time in the year! <br /><br />I've worn contacts since I was 14 but they are hard gas permeable lenses. One isn't fitting right so I've just been wearing my glasses all the time until I make time to go to the eye dr. If they fit right, they're a dream! Your peripheal vision is better, no fogging up when you come in out of cold weather, and nothing falls off your face accidently. :-)Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539677025266761617.post-1023902328730505302010-10-26T03:40:03.513-06:002010-10-26T03:40:03.513-06:00One of my favourtie flowers the perfume is gorgeou...One of my favourtie flowers the perfume is gorgeous , thank for sharing<br />JoyArt by JoyMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00408407856336430141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539677025266761617.post-82471276928472828242010-10-26T01:22:55.857-06:002010-10-26T01:22:55.857-06:00I just love the smell of Gardenias they remind me ...I just love the smell of Gardenias they remind me of Bubble Gum, we had one but it was taken out as it didn't grow much.
