Very nice, Melissa.

Do you know the name of that one Ladyrowan? It is stunning. Of course is that a mutant or the norm for that cultivar?

Photo 2 today

photo 3 today

cici, I don't know exactly what that one red one is. I've seen them all my life, they are very common. Maybe someone else knows. I just know when I look at them, it reminds me of royalty (like a king in his robe sort of thing). I have always loved them. That 2nd pic was some bulbs I picked up last fall. I don't know what they are either - I need to start writing these down and keeping better track of them on my excel spreadsheet I made (this winter).

I love these!

bamasharon - those look like dianthus to me.

Hi Y'all,
I don't know the name of it, but I like this little daffodil.
Iowaron

Pheasant's Eye Daffodil

Dea - those are GORGEOUS! :)

Thanks Karrie :)

Here's a whole bunch of daffs

Taken today

I love these but I am not sure what they are.

Cocoa Rose

bama, I think that last Iris you showed "might" be this Western Blue Flag, Rocky Mountain Iris. Although yours is more purple, it looks like this pic might be too bright. It looks much like the shape of yours. I looked in the database, and this was the closest I could find as a match.

Yours is a beautiful Iris! I'm not too much on Irises, as I grew up with the "same ole same ole's" but when I see pretty ones like yours, that are "different", I will most definitely "ooooooh and awe:!!!! :)

Here is a pic of one of mine.

bama, is that hot cocoa??? i just bought one of those a few weeks ago.. here is mine... and i know langbr, i love those colors.... karrie, yeah i know about it being a darwin, but the name of that color ( my orange one) is applapoon or something like that...

That's a beauty, Celia. Thanks for sharing it.

My first iris bloomed yesterday morning. This one is Immortality.

celia, i first thought that was a rose.. wow how beautiful!!!! and langbr, i love that iris!!! i am waiting for a blue one to open!!!! here is a peach rose , medallion (sp?) with i think that delphium (again sp?) ... love those two colors together!!!! this taken on the 9th, no sun that day!!!

cici that is going to be a spectacular display.

This is Anemone DeCaen I believe. It's from a 'mix' so not sure of this ones name. This is my first year for these corms and I just love these flowers!

langbr, what kind of flower is that? Anemone DeCaen ? never heard of it.. i looove it though!!! how big are those flowers??? i almost thought it was a daliha.... love it!! do u have a pic of the whole plant? also, as far as that last pic i posted.. the blue delphium has gotten three times its size alreayd.. havent checked the rose bush lately to see if there are more buds... i have to feed the roses today.. they like when i feed them...(: how about this combo for rose and compainion... hope you can see it..

frosted lady tulip. By the middle of the day this tulip was up and blooming. Amazing what they can withstand.

hepata

cici-- Anemones are also known as Windflowers. My plants aren't too big yet, but they say 6-12" in height is the normal. Mine are about 5 or 6 inches this first year. I was thinking they were in a different place than they are and was completely surprised when I saw this bloom. I have several more that should be blooming this week if the rain doesn't keep them from opening. Actually I had some 'DeCaen' and 'St. Brigid' and I now think this is the 'St Brigid' because it's a double. The DeCaen are singles.

some of my favorites.

bright and happy daffodils

virginia blue bells. One of the best plants to have in the spring shade garden...it disappears after blooming and lets the hostas take over. If I had to choose only one plant to be my favorite (spring blooming!) it would have to be this beauty.

tulipa hearts delight. The name says it all.
