Now I know why this bugged me,
on Papito's post, I looked at the picture
and it also gave another name for it,
Lily of the valley tree

I had saw this in a book, and now I remember seeing it!!
Thanks Papito!!
It always bugs me when I see something, and know I've seen it, and for the life of me, I can't remember WHERE I saw it!!!

BARLEY, How did you know it was that tree???

And that's the book!!!
I didn't get that book last year,
because I changed all my catalog's
over to my mother's house, the year
she moved here, so she could read them
first and send them to me, when she was
done reading them, instead of both of us
getting the books, I decided not to do that
one book because she's more into flowers.....
I didn't have a copy, but I KNEW I SAW IT SOMEWHERE"S< that always, always bugs me..
if you see it and can't remember where you saw it!

Thanks again!!!

Holy smokes, that is on my list for my hubby to get me for my B-day!!! Last night when I was following him around the house and showing him pictures...I want this, isn't that pretty...... you get the point. I saw the picture Lily of the valley tree, it's in one of my catalogs, you get 2 baby trees for $3 I think it was. I'll check again tonite and get the name of the catalog too!!
