Polyanthus, sage and forget me nots.
OMG are those little blue things the forget me nots? I have some little blue flowers and don't know what they are, but mine are single and not on that little vine. The blue yellow is a great combo!.

Here is a bloom ready to open almost of the fritillaria imperialis
Oh fancy! I love fritillaria imperialis, what a treat when that opens. Lovely clear photo.
here'a another blue/yellow combo, even if it is a dandilion!
Candee, The forget me nots are everywhere! when they have gone in a couple of weeks then I will be able to see what is coming up!
Scillia.
Blue sky!
Gorgeous blue sky above that japonica Terri, it's about time for some nice spring weather. Here is the beginning of a wisteria bloom.
Wow, that image is sharp! I love wisteria, I can't wait to see your flowers pics with your new camera, they are going to be fantastic.
Our wisteria stopped blooming about a week ago, but while it was, Oh what a sight.
Some of my new finds.
Rose bush on the side of the house. It is next to my camillias. I have never seen it bloom. Funny, it looks just like my Cami's.
Another rose bush in the back yard.
New daff's.....
hostas are coming up....
Love the roses, they look so healthy too. Your garden is certainly blooming lovely!
I gave up with the slug/Hosta war a few years ago. Your Hosta looks like a nice one.
Thanks for sharing.
Terri, here is a link on organic slug control. I have heard the beer method works well. I use diatomaceous earth, which you can find at nurseries and on-line. It has worked great.

Here are my other hostas. They are much more open now and faring well.
The only trouble with the beer method is you have to empty it ......yuk!
Thanks for the link.
The pincushion flower has entralled me. I cannot believe how many blooms and buds are on it. And the size of it too!!
I haven't tried the beer method and don't want to. Neither will I Pick off the slugs, disgusting.
My yellow rose bush is just about ready to start showing off again...
LOL, I pour some table salt on the slugs and they just dry right up. Never used any other method.
Love those roses, so healthy they are. I'll have to go see if I have any appearances. I did see some Solomons' seal coming up.
I separated my yucca on Sat. with Mike's help digging but afraid I may have killed it as not able to get much root the trunk went way down and so I had to saw it off, then separated into two clumps. Had to be moved as it was right at the edge of the walkway and kept poking my legs and close to poking out the eyes on my little Abygail and Eva when they visit.
So glad to see things coming into bloom.
Lenten Rose Helleborus this is the light lavender
Times two
Hi Candee........... Some call that MURDER!!!!!!!! LOL. I don't mind sharing some of my plants with slugs and snails, but WHY do they have to be so greedy and eat everything?!
Hope you manage to save your Yucca. Are Abygail and Eva your Grandaughters?
Your lenten rose looks a beautiful colour..
Traci, Love your pincushion, so full of flowers! Hope mine gets bushy like yours.
No buds on my roses yet......
Honesty, not much else flowering here yet. Please keep your pics coming!
Abygail Grace is 1 1/2 and Eva Grace is 2. Yes my beautiful grandbabies.
I don't kill all the snails, just the ones I see when I happen to be walking around with a can of Mortons LOL!
Here are some garden pests across the street.
Oh lovely ages! bet you have your handsful when they come to visit!
Are those Deer? they LOOK sweet! I'll take your word that they are pests in the garden. I can just imagine the havoc they could cause!
I haven't been out in the garden today, no pics sorry!
Yes, deer, but I have no problems with them, there is plenty enough in that field for them that they don't bother on this side of the street. Thank goodness as they do love flowers.
The garden this evening. The Polys are still going strong!
Penstemon coming back.....
Honesty
Red Valerian in bud....
Peony looking shiny...
Fern fronds coming up.....
Something is eating my Rhubbard, think I will dig it up and take to the allotment.
Wow, all your flowers look so special. They seem to pop up quickly, seeing as you just came out of winter! I'll try to take some new pics this weekend. You've seen most of mine already terri.
Sue
Crucifix orchid
Hi Sue, Glad you found me here! Love to see your Aussie flowers anytime, so different from mine!
The forget me nots hide everything coming up! but I love them and they are better than bare soil.
Your Orchid is such a lovely vibrant colour, really pretty. I don't have any Orchids!
Look forward to your pics at the weekend!
Nothing new flowering yet!
I was given some forget me not seeds, but I don't think they'll like it here. I have put pansies in this week, but have nothing new flowering either. Oh, I lie! A Tillandsia ionotha
That Tilly! is really pretty Sue, thanks for sharing. The forget me nots would do better in a damp boggy area, they like it wet! What else you got in flower?
Raining here all day. BOOOOOOO!
Raining here too, boggy I got!
This is the front gate and drain!
