Like a freight train! I am so far behind. Loving seeing the iris starting to pop.

Victor, That photo of Enkianthus Showy Lantern is stunning, though I have never liked them in reality, except the pictures of the flowers. I need to take another look at them.

DyanesGarden, I want a Azalea 'Gilbraltar' and your shot of the allium draped with the caterpillar is amazing.

grampapa, nice to see you posting. Watch out for the fennel as it can take over the world. I love the bronze one, but had to banish it from my garden.

My helpers are madly mulching the gardens. I did major dead heading yesterday and took some snaps in one section of the garden which is now exploding. Very happy with another sunny, and calm day.

Here is Darmara peltata which has been fun to watch grow as I bought it after it had bloomed last year for the foliage and had no idea that it would put on a show.
