spring bulbs pictures

Aaaahh yes she is adorable! I have a 4yr old little girl who lives next door. She loves to pick flowers for me too. Sometimes right out of MY garden! LOL!!!

toronto tulips

blushing beauty tulips(almost done for), allium sensation and some dandelions in the background...LOL

Oh WOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!
You all have some AMAZING blooms here!!
This is the first time I've stumbled onto this board.
I am literally salivating here!!!

Makes me wanna go dig in the dirt!
(Or go shopping!!!) *wink*

Cajun2 Let me be the first to welcome you! Enjoy the stroll through all these great pictures and feel free to post some of your own too.

Just found this popped up in my tiny shade garden. I think I planted this 2 yrs ago. Got it from one of our co-ops! It's a Shooting Star.

Oh, I like that! I like that little violet in the corner too! :)

Alliums are up!

It isn't spring here, so aM I allowed to throw in an Autumn bulb? Here are my Autumn crocuses - Colchicum speciosum, which didn't appear last year, but have come back stronger than ever.

I'm enjoying your beautiful photos and see a few things I must have! Here are a few of mine, no names on these, they were here when we bought the property. Some may be crosses with others, and there seem to be more new ones every year, not only new plants but colors and combinations I don't remember.

I love this color!

Dark eyes and light eyes. The ones with the light eyes open to be quite flat just before they start loosing petals.

A few more of this one would suit me just fine.

A little different.

The lighter edge really sets this one off nicely.

Hope this one multiplies!

This is one of my favorites. Sorry my beds were so weedy when these photos were taken, I have done a lot of cleaning and mulching with chipped up tree trimmings this spring so I hope next year the pictures will look better.

Here's my first try at allium bulbs. I just love them!!

'puter is acting weird - won't let me post pic - I'll try again.

Glads are bloomming

More glads

rylaff - what is the name of the glads in your pic? Mine are up here in Z5b/6 but still about 3-4 weeks away from blooms.

I dont know the name of them. Wish I did. I picked them out of a bin at a nursery.

LOL!! That's definitely me and glads too! I always get the "mix" at Home Depot, Lowes or the locally owned garden center. That's a beautiful color combination whatever it is!!

alliums... in a smaller size, we'll see if it works...

edited to add: my DS reduced the pic to 30% of original per Terry's idea and it posted. :)

yea kooger! I've been anxious to see your allium pictures for a long time! They are beauties! Glad you finally got them posted! : )

thanks Bev. They are so cool to pounce your hand on - GD loves it! I have a few Star of Persia too but they're not fully open yet. How's the weather your way?

Rain, Rain, Rain! Unbelievable! Yesterday morning a group of us ladies (lilyfan, Iowarons wife Peggy, Teresa and I ) went on a ladies day out (Ron couldn't go, but we did get to have a quick tour of their flower beds before getting on the road, FANTASTIC!!!!) trip to the Rainbow Iris Farm here in Iowa...We had a great time and the Iris were just georgeous! Kelly (the 16 year old owner) gave us a tour and was a wealth of information...He is such of a fantastic speaker and so knowledgeable for his young age. Great food, great friends and great Iris! If you havent had the chance to go there yet...put it on the must do list and leave your money at home! Only kidding! You won't be able to leave without buying some Iris...Its would be impossible! On the way home we were delighted to get a tour of Lilyfans garden!...All I can say is WOW! I'M TOTALY ENVIOUS! I'll post some pictures later! Bev

oh, envy, envy, envy! What a fun day you guys had! Try get those pics up ...hopefully you're not on the 'cannot post pics list'. lol

Kooger, actually I have been on the "cannot post pics list..."" I tryed for 3 days to post a picture on this forum and was not able to. I was so happy to finally see your allium picture! You've been trying to post that one for days! Hopefully the problem has been taken care of and we'll start to see more pictures posted...Oh, by the way...did you bring the globe thistle in the bottle. I dug a deep hole and planted that baby right away..so far so good! thanks!

in the 2 lt pop bottle? I brought 4 of them. :)

Yeah it was in a 2 lt plastic pop bottle! I've got a feeling that it's gonna get huge! This is a first for me...Thanks Kooger for a new experience! : ) Bev

Whoohoo! I FINALLY have some pictures to share!
Here are my dwarf cannas in my entryway bed:

And just one more for now.... growing in "Nancy's Garden" (my memory garden for my best friend). This one is named 'Special Friend'
