"A Transplantable Rose" isn't the first song that I wrote but as a tale of an Illinois-to-Texas gardener it seemed suitable as a name for my main blog, slightly changed to The Transplantable Rose.
The character who sings this song is may have come from Illinois, but she's not me and a job was not the reason for the move. In the play, Caroline comes to Austin hoping for a new and different life and a place where she can forget a lost love. (I always liked that name 'Caroline'. It was an alternate choice for a baby name once upon a time and it's fun to be able to use it. )

About Me
- Annie in Austin
- Welcome! As "Annie in Austin" I blog about gardening in Austin, TX with occasional looks back at our former gardens in Illinois. My husband Philo & I also make videos - some use garden images as background for my original songs, some capture Austin events & sometimes we share videos of birds in our garden. Come talk about gardens, movies, music, genealogy and Austin at the Transplantable Rose and listen to my original songs on YouTube. For an overview read Three Gardens, Twenty Years. Unless noted, these words and photos are my copyrighted work.
