It seems like everything is coming into bloom at once..
Here's Wisteria jap. 'Black Dragon' again..
I bought this as 'Mark Sullivan', but I'm not so sure it is... Not a really strong grower, but beautiful anyway.
I just got this Dogwood a couple of months ago.. Cornus florida var. 'Pringlei'. I'm told the this is a seedling of C. florida var. 'Urbiniana', hence the different name. I don't know how it differs, other than the possible variation that seedlings may have, as opposed to cutting grown...
A completely different type of Dogwood is this red twig variety with gold foliage.. Maybe C. sericea 'Sunshine'
Rosa chinensis 'Mutabilis' is tender in colder climates, I'm told.. Here, it makes a nearly ever-blooming, easy care shrub with flowers that change colors as they age.
My Grand-daughter named this one "Cookie"... late in the afternoon the chickens start following me around because they know they get treats when I lock them up.
My first tall bearded Iris opened today. I bought this as 'Stepping Out', but it is not... I'm working on narrowing down the name, but 'Classic Look' and 'Rare Treat' are in the running.
That's enough for now, it's time to feed the dog...
