I really like your blooming onion & its' pot. Very cool...

Bloomin' Onions! Love those! Even the potted kinds! Lol

Got a grove of Wild Elderberry behind the house. They are starting to bud out. Maybe the birds will leave me some berries this year? Doubt it. They are quick and they don't share. Hahaha

You could net a few of them so you could have some too.

Bloomin' Onion...

Some of what is out there today...

Clematis


Johnsonii...Amaryllis...roses...salvia


Iris...I picked " Don't Mess with Texas" to show.


Many blessings to everyone for a wonderful gardening year!

Lovely!

@Altheabyanothername Your gardens are just beautiful!

I think instead of "What is blooming for you right now?" it should be 'What isn't blooming for you right now! " WOW!

I think it's lovely too, Althea. So lush. How do you show an Iris? Did you mean for a competition?

Kristi! I just pictured a few not wanting to overwhelm...I do regularly post my garden pictures on the garden photo thread. You are welcome to check it out whenever you have the time.

The thread "My Caffeinated Garden and other tidbits" in Garden Photos forum

Luv...I grow a lot of tall bearded iris. I picked that particular iris out of many different ones to "show" on this thread because of its name.

May everyone and their garden have the blessing of good health!

This is the best my garden has bloomed ever!

It is beautiful!

I especially like your Larkspur and Columbine

May I please ask...how do you do larkspur? Perennial or annual,
Seeds, returning plants, or new plants each year?

May the remainder of the month be simply wonderful!

Love seeing all your flowers! Here's my first water lily of the year. I cant take credit for it. I was gifted the plant along with my new fish in the pond. It came with inflo.

My larkspur reseeds itself. I let some of the plants go to seed even though they look pretty ratty, and then just shake them where I want them to go.

I love reseeders. If you are willing...I would love to trade you something for larkspur seeds.

Many blessings for a wonderful and safe week!

Hi Sharon, I will try and save some for you. Things are very busy right now. This is the last spring we will be in this house as we will be moving by this time next year and are trying to figure out where we want to live or build..

Oh, teacup what a shame to leave your beautiful garden behind! But always fun, I think, to start a new project.

I've never seen variegated vinca bloom before this year. It may have, though. It has taken years and years for one plant to spread in dry, caliche shade. It all started blooming in early march. The ones that get a little more sun still had a few blooms before the rain.

I just transplanted this little bunch a few weeks ago.

This garden is 12 years old so the prospect of a new one is both exciting and daunting. But I think the next one will be smaller so it doesn't become a burden. I envision this one will be our forever home.

I got this in a trade last year. I didn't expect flowers in the first season, thinking it needed to acclimate to my pond temp, exposure, etc. But it's a very nice surprise. I didnt even notice the inflo!

Louisiana iris 'Black Gamecock' maybe?
