@lovemyhouse Thanks for the walk through your garden. Your pictures are impressive.
Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.

Oh Deb -- that tree peony blossom is just stunning!!!
And I love Sparks Fly -- the ones you sent me have survived the winter, but look so tiny. I don't see how they can bloom this year..........................

A gardening friend recently gifted me with a tree peony. I do not know its name and it is only about six inches high. I do like its leaves and I am looking forward to getting to know it a lot better in the years to come. smiles
Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?
Dynomite Sedum returning. I thought it croaked. // Crazy quilt of Iris // Indian Pink returning. Tough little bugger.
First stalk on Lest We Forget // Creeping phlox I rooted from a cutting and planted last Fall is flourishing this Spring. // Patriot Hosta is coming back in the Story Circle. Thought it croaked, too.
Hellebore rebloom is more subtly colored. // BIG bloom on this tree peony. // Cool edging contrast on the tree peony bud.
Debra, love your tree peony. Back in Illinois we had the old fashioned peonies that would fill the house with fragrance. My brother sent me some hybrids that were not fragrant, but gorgeous colors. I really wish I had brought some of them with me when we moved to AR.

3 knock your socks off beauties there Debra! I love the acid yellow of the iris, the pure red of the peony & that lovely, bright clematis!
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
