Beautiful, Kathy! The primroses are wonderful.

Beautiful shots Kathy, I love the cherry tree, very showy. What is the pink Rhodie? I think the Waxwings are saying, who ate all the berries.

I dug for the tag on my Erica and it is Erica carnea 'Springwood Pink', this one stays very low. I have another Erica from Walmart which is pink (NOID) just starting to bloom now, not nearly as showy and slightly more upright.

The pink is called Aglo. I guess there are a lot of pink ericas!!
I have no idea why the waxwings were here since there is no fruit around!

Cedar waxwings..who knew?! Are they smaller than a cardinal? I've heard of them but never seen one.
Susan, your Iris are beautiful, those are all blooming now?
Here's a treasure from my garden today, I had to look at my packing slips from the fall to find out what it is, the tag
has gone missing..
Scilla peruviana

Lindsey that's a beauty. Yes the waxwings are smaller (7.25" long) than cardinals (8.75" long) but not much!
Love your SDBs Susan!! Wonderful!
Upper garden today.
