This past weekend was 3 days of steady rain. Rain rain rain rain. But sure did help some of the roses decide that they want to open! I actually have buds on plants that are about 4" tall. Pathetic.
Anyways, here's a second set of pictures taken early this morning. Early I mean about 8:30am. But, since the sun doesn't pop over the neighboring houses/trees until after 8:30-9am, this is early. So there'll be a lot of shadows in some of the pictures and I had to fiddle w/the brightness on some of them to get closer to true-to-color.
Starting with my "flowerbed" in the front of the yard, here's my petunias & others.
