Lovely, Rita. Like the wood hyacinths and the honeysuckle too.
That is a solid red honeysuckle isn't it?

Everything just always looks so good. You do a great job!

Rita, if you get bored, hop on an airplane and head South. I'll be glad to let you design, dig up, plant, and anything else you'd like to do.

Ha, ha. Never bored. I still have plenty to do here, just that I don't have to work as hard lately since I have no new garden beds to create.

Some pictures of blooming shrubs today-

More Azaleas blooming.













Here is the wysteria still blooming.


And now lilac pictures as the lilacs are going strong here. First the small flowered lilacs.




And now some French Lilacs.





And last are these blue french lilacs I have blooming. Had these for awhile and waited a long time for bloom as this is the fiirst year this one has flowered.

Wow, what a colorful garden, I just love azaleas and of course wisteria.

Dot

Just plumb beautiful with all that color.

Great color month after month. I know you work hard to accomplish this and your hard work certainly pays off.

Thanks everyone. That is the general idea here. To always have masses of something in bloom. Took me years to get to this point!

My iris are starting to bloom much much earlier than has ever happened before.

The first TB iris to bloom here is KICKAPOO KANGAROO



Blockbuster is also open today



The very earliest of my Siberian iris started to bloom. This is CHINA SPRING.


Clump shot of CHINA SPRING. None of the other Siberian iris I have are even showing bloom stalks yet but this extra early is blooming.



And here is the first of my dutch iris blooming. This one is Apollo.

Spectacular spring bloom.

I am gradullly getting it so that there is usually something blooming around here. Especially during the spring and late summer. The spring bulbs were really extra great this year and as I have already ordered a ton more I extect they will be even better yet next spring. Plus all my lilacs bloomed this year. I had some that never bloomed before this year. Azaleas always put on a great show as I have many of them.

Amazing colors in your gardens Rita.

Rita, I love the Iris all of them but the first one is absolutely awesome!

Azaleas, wisterias, and french lilacs, oh my. These are gorgeous.
Oh yes, gardens need constant tending. There's always something
to do.

It is May already. My garden pictures continue on a new thread.
