Chelle! they look great.

No snow here thank goodness. It rained and rained and rained much of the day yesterday and then all night into this morning. Talk about soaked. Everything is soaked but that is good as we needed the rain.

Catmints here are nicely leafed out and growing but no blooms this early. I am sure it won't be too long till they start.

Just over 4" of rain. I hope that it soaked in.

Tick count this gardening seasen has been 4.

Glad you got some rain, Lucy.

That seems like a lot to get at one time??

We're still having an unusually dry spring here. I've actually been able to dig and plant in April this year instead of waiting 'til the end of May for the soil to be workable.

The first wren showed up here yesterday! A definite sign that the frosty weather will soon be over!! It's about time for our hummingbird feeders to be filled and hung; those little sweeties will be along shortly.

tick count here is 8....LOL...We need so need rain...

i saw you yesterday am Chelle at 9&30...tried to get your attention...LOL

My semps are having babies too... Yay

You know, I had the thought that I should have seen you!!! Funny!

I went to Spring Creek yesterday and bought some cheese, but I didn't see any plants that I needed, can you believe that???!

They're calling for rain late Wednesday, and then again on Friday, so I think I'll toss out some seeds tomorrow. I lost a bunch of my short variety poppy sprouts due to a lack of temperature controls in the SpringHouse, so at this point I may as well direct sow and hope for the best.

Wood hyaciths are blooming now in the southside rose garden. I have roses, lilies, and spring bulbs in there.






This is daffodil MERLIN near the pond in the front yard.






Now some tulips blooming. This lovely double is UNCLE TOM. Just looks amazing to me. So full and the color is wonderful!









I have some orange tulips. This is PRINSES IRENE.




And another double tulip. This one is ORANGE PRINCESS.

Daffs ROULETTE still going strong.

Rita, how beautiful!!

Uncle Tom is going on my list!

Thanks for sharing those, Rita.

You are certainly having fun with your garden.

I guess the drought is over here. Huggergirl you will be amazed at how fast the plants respond when there is more sun.

AHHH ....yes ,more sun Its gonna be weird...But Good...I might end up with Grass to mow...It always grew,but was thin...Down front..

Chelle ,what`d ya think about spring creek ? Ivebeen going there since I was Little,and It was just a roadside market stand...

Rita ,I love those wood hyacinths,I need some...On the want list...Love those tulips...

You get a few of the wood hyacinths and they really multiply. Put on a fantastic show each spring!

That red double tulip, UNCLE TOM, is my favorite of all my tulips this year. Of course you get one year out of them, they don't come back so I think I might just reorder it and plant in exactly the same spot for next year.

My Mountain Ash fruit trees that I bought from One Green World a while back have arrived today so I have to go out and unpack and plant them.

against the fence is the rose Pinky

Beautiful, Janice!

What's the apricot colored rose?

Thanks, Chelle.

It is a yellow David Austin. I will go look at the tag tomorrow and get the name. Great fragrance and recurrent bloomer.

Janice and Rita, the pictures are beautiful. Your gardens must be ahead of us by 3-4 weeks.
