Got lots of rain last night!! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Nasty thunderstorms, but lots of rain! About 1/4 inch! I love it!

I have 2 miniature roses blooming. I have Rise N Shine blooming, but couldn't get decent pictures of it. EDIT: This is International Herald Tribune. I thought I lost it last year.. apparently not!

For some reason, my pineleaf penstemon is starting to bloom.. which is weird because that's usually a July/August bloomer. I have a red & a yellow (I bought 2 reds, but 1 ended up being a yellow Thumbs down ) You can see my poor tulips that got froze-out in the plant, along with a miniature rose (not sure who.. maybe International Herald Tribune) on the left & Bridges Penstemon on the right.

I have a Pinacolada Penstemon also blooming. This one is the Violet version.


Strangely enough, my Sensation Lilac is blooming too.. kinda late as this usually blooms in the beginning of May. Everything's 4-6 weeks late
