Saturday Garden Pictures

Castlegar, BC(Zone 6b)

Thought I's posey around the yard with my digi to see if there was any damage done by all the recent rain. Everything looks like it fended alright. These pretty ladies are Purple Blotch Pansies, looking none the worse for wear.

Yeah, right....like I said before, sigh...there is no hope for me!

Next, a snap of a new Columbine I got this year, from the Dragonfly series. Just a baby yet, but she's pretty. Picture please, Donna...

As I was passing by this Purple Sensation Allium, I noticed a big ole Bumbly Bee, having a feast. You probably can't see him very well.

Here's a shot of my Grace Smoke Bush. Love the color of the foliage on this fella. And as Bugs said...that's all folks!

Great pics once again, Donna! :-) That waterfall looks really nice. Gorgeous Allium....I think I have to go get myself some Allium bulbs asap.

Donna, I'm glad to see you posting pics. After I read your post about all what is up and blooming or getting ready to bloom, I was thinking 'where's the pictures?!' glad you didn't disappoint me LOL

Looking very pretty Donna.......I too like the color of your Grace Smoke Bush. Ü

Ya' know Linda, I took many more shots and because I have such a crappy digi for closeups, I didn't post even half of them. Very frustrating. But I keep trying. :{

Thanks Pam :)

My Purple Sensation is just showing the bud down in the center of the rosette of leaves...won't be open until late June-early July. Love the waterfall! I have a small garden pond that is more of a stagnant pothole!

Thanks Wilma. Todd, if you have a bud showing now, you'll see a blossom in a couple weeks, especially if you get some warm weather. I noticed buds first in Mid April and had blossoms at the beginning of May. :)
