It looks exactly like that, I was thrilled that the camera captured it so well. My cheap point-n-shoot.

Very nice! I was hoping to add a clematis to my Hosta bed also. Looks great!

I'm sure!! Is that a Peony Tulip? I bought Patriot Tulips for the first time, I can't wait to see them blooming.

Here is a few I got. These are supposed to be good for more southern gardens that do not get a good cold spell. So far I am getting a pretty good cold spell. Figures, but most people dig up their Tulips and put them in the refrigerator for 6 weeks. I am not into digging up stuff, but I will dig my new Dahlias, starting next year.

Good morning, I hope everyone had a great Christmas. I have been so busy the last few days that I miss my fun computer time lol. It seems like all I got to do was check out a recipe online.
I enjoy seeing all the nice colorful flowers. So glad we are past Dec 21st. Spring is on the way!

Bee Kind, make the world a better place.
