Those all came from Chamblees.

BTW- I was entering these into the database when I saw that there's no way that iris is "Introspection".

Gudoshnik tulips starting to bloom

I just love the way they look in that rounded raised bed. Like they were made to be there! I am quite pleased with these as they are a darwin tulip and this is the third spring for them.

I wish tulips lasted longer. But I think they are so beautiful.

OH Toni, unfair, unfair! Where is spring?

Mike, thank you. All thru the winter I really wanted spring to come fast so I could see all my bulbs that I planted.

Rita - This *IS* spring. We get most of our snows in the spring time. This is our last snowy gasp for the season, I think. Sun's trying to break through right now.. may hit freezing today. But by this weekend we'll have 70s! Which means it'll melt rather than blow away, soaking in soooooo nicely! I can't wait to see my lilacs with all this moisture we've had as of late!!

Scout, checking out the view from the balcony, responsible for recent increase of gopher gut gifts on the front porch. Moving soon with her family so I won't have to be careful stepping out the front door anymore!

A new cymbidium for the front porch.

Oh, you know you'll miss having to look down for gopher guts...reminds me of that one childhood song.. lesse..

Boys are made of..
Greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey feet
Chopped up parakeet
French fried eye balls
Swimming in a pool of blood..
Gosh I forgot my spoon!

Yes, I had a weird childhood.

But
