Very nice shot, WC.

Pretty phlox, Allison.

Delph.

love the shading they get Victor

Me too!

Me three. Just wish they were more reliable returners.

There is a lot of red out in my garden

Pretty!

nice JoAnn

Nice colors on that spring foliage!

.

georgeous

yeah until it's lying on the ground

:)

Are the blooms too heavy to be suported on their stems?
wha has some I wonder if he stakes his.

I guess.. they were good for a few days after the first blooms... then I used a peony ring for the rest of the summer

I was thinking of getting some but will take a pass. Too much trouble for me.

Cute, very unique Echinacea!

Hibiscus, (tropical) 06/15/2005

That's a nice hibiscus!

Thanks, I love the tropical ones. Don't buy them up here 'cause they wont come back. - Some people say they attract mosquitoes, but then in the places that they're indigenous, they usually have mosquitoes everywhere! lol

Nice bright one, WC.

Love PDD too - until it flops.

Nice setting, Jo.

Columbine.

love that yellow WC.. and your pink & yellow Victor!!!... so happy to see the white columbine babies Weeze gave me last year made it.. I see green!!!!!

Nice shot of Final Touch, Victor! That's one I have, and I really like it. That delph bloom is very polychromatic! That backlit shot of the columbine is fantastic!

WC, nice bright crocus. I don't have any yellow ones. Will have to remedy that. I have whites and purples, a couple different shades of the latter, and the white w/purple stripes (or is that purple with white stripes?). The Butterfly on the BB is great! That hibiscus looks luscious!

Phlox is very pretty, Allison. I love phlox. Nice PDD.

JoAnn, your garden looks great, and your tulip foliage is nice. That's one thing I rarely take pics of.

Karen

Pink astilbes taken at Cochato Nursery in Holbrook, MA 2 years ago.

love that shot Karen!!... so nice when there are so many together

Lovely Karen! All pretty blooms today.

Nice, Karen! Love astilbes.

Thanks. Yes, I love big sweeps of them, something I don't have. Will have to get more.

Karen

red, white & blue hydrangea ... no other name than that.. think it was $3.00

I have one of those.
Nice pix Allison
Here is Royal Wedding

This will be the second year. Hope to see more than 1 bloom.
This was from GC and had a bud on iy when it arrived.

thrir plants cost more but they are given a better start.
