Scenes From The Garden

Here’s some of what’s blooming in my garden this week.
The irises are still going strong.

And now I have some mini purple irises blooming.

I had the first red strawberry from my garden this afternoon… shortly after this photo was taken. Now I’m dreaming of strawberry-rhubarb pie.

My tiny miniature […]

More Irises in Bloom

The irises are really blooming now, purple, yellow, and white all at once. They’re making a beautiful display in my hillside garden. I have some bi-colored yellow and purple irises, but so far they’re still in hiding.

I planted them on the hillside, with the daylilies and both are doing very […]

Today The Iris Blooms

Today the white iris is in full bloom, and we have full sunshine. Why not yesterday for garden blogger’s bloom day?
It’ one of my favorite flowers in the garden. I love their white elegance, and they bloom again in the fall.
My mom gave them to me a couple years ago, which makes them extra […]

May Garden Blogger’s Bloom Day

Every month May Dream’s Garden hosts Garden Blogger’s Bloom Day. Nothing in my garden wants to bloom this year. Overall this spring has been cool and wet (not just damp, WET). I think that’s why everything seems to be behind schedule in the bloom department. I have several buds, but I think they’re waiting for […]

White Lilacs

My sister has a beautiful white lilac bush. We were over for a cookout this weekend, and I couldn’t resist snapping a shot. It was in full bloom, and I think you all know how much I love lilacs in full bloom.

Finally Lilacs

Between wind, rain, and depressingly cloudy days the lilacs are finally in full bloom. I can’t get enough of them. They’re so beautiful I had to share one more time.

Lilac Anticipation

I showed you a photo of my almost lilac blooms the other day. I hoped they’d be in full bloom by now, but damp, cool, cloudy weather seems to have slowed them down. It’s finally sunny today so I’m hoping to bring you lilacs in full bloom later today or tomorrow.

While you’re waiting […]

Almost Lilacs

I get almost as excited over flower buds as I do about the actual blooms. I think it’s the anticipation. My lilac bush is almost ready to burst into bloom. I love lilacs, and I have a perfect view of the top of the tree, and the beautiful blooms from my bedroom window.
I […]

We Have Tulips

I told you the tulips would be looking great in a few days. Once the blooms start coming they just keep coming.
