My transplanted peony has
finally deigned to bloom for me;)))
It came from our old house and
has stubbornly refused to bloom
in its new spot...
When it opens completely, the
center is a light raspberry color.
And
Here is my old transplanted (2 times!)
Rhodie:
Apparently it finally likes that corner of our
house....;))) See how dry our lawn is!!
Here is a closer look at its lovely
blooms
I just love that pinky-lavender color
it sports....
And
from my front of the rock
garden spot
My Japanese Iris has come out, too--
plus some buds awaiting the
rain, I think...it has been
super dry here...
They look like crepe paper in this
stage--so lovely...all those
delicate shades of purple...
And
By the side of our garage and
front of our tv room we have a
couple Bearded Iris left
(after the disruption of a
propane generator installation)
They ended up unknowingly digging
up most of my irises ;000
A true light lavender on these
they were a gift from a friend
long ago ...
As the blossoms fade away,
they look like
thin papers...
I hope you enjoyed that little stroll about
my limited garden areas this year.

I have been watching "Susan Hiles Art"
on Youtube and she is also letting us
follow her progress on container gardening...
It inspired me to buy some sunflower seeds
and some "Silver Coins" seeds and
"Cherry rose" sunflower seeds...
We shall see how they do..')))

Your spring blooms and garden look so beautiful. I always find it magica\l when things bloom after the long barren winters...
ReplyDeleteKeep in mind that money plant [silver coins] is usually a biennial, so it ay not bloom or set the lovely seeds this year. And you must reseed next year forr the following year etc. Like hollyhocks.

Lovely blooms! Our rhodie took a big hit in the Christmas freeze and is not as full as normal this year.
ReplyDeleteIts always nice to have a peek in a garden. I'm rather fond of irises. Not that mine are behaving themselves.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of your garden flowers, ours are now at the end of their time and preparing for Winter. I haven't been at the computer following blogs afraid due to a spider - I did get back to write on a few days ago, I'm sorry I would have missed your last few posts.
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are so pretty! We planted peonies last year and I see buds but no flowers yet. Still waiting! After seeing your irises, I really would love to add them to my garden!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blooms - I'm so glad you shared them with us!
ReplyDeleteThose Irises are gorgeous, as is the rhododendron. Fabulous the peony is flowering. Peonies are truly stunning flowers.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful blooms you get to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing all of your blooms. I'm glad some of the Iris were still left near the generator. Rhodies are so pretty. I don't know if they could survive our winters.
ReplyDeleteSo nice that your peonies feel at home now enough to bloom;). They are beautiful. Irises too. Thank you for showing us your garden flowers.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked iris' - they come in so many beautiful colours. My mother always had peonies in her garden and would bring the flowers indoors and then wonder why the house was suddenly crawling with ants.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see your garden blooms! Your peony must be happy in its new spot now.
