Spring Blooms - Part 6

I don't work on my back anymore LOL):-

He he! Nice Jo Ann!

I do catch a few zingers now and then

Different view of Blushing Lady.

Chuck, prayers for you and your family.

'Lilac Sunday'.

Heuchera 'Caramel' - new foliage is turning from reddish to the creamy color.

Lemon balm.

beautiful. My sister bought one last sunday.
I love it that the color changes.

Physocarpus 'Summer Wine' flower forming.

Pond - the grass will soon be hiding the neighbor's shed.

your pond is really beautiful.
The shed doesn't bother me. Maybe it's just who ownes it.

No, the neighbors are nice but the shed is distracting.

Gorgeous pond. My duck would love that, but I can guarantee you wouldn't love the duck.

Thanks. I'm in the middle of replacing the pump - that's why the waterfall is not going. You can keep the duck!

Ahhh, you must have had some experience with ducks. Messy little buggers. Likes to eat plants like water lilies, too.

All this duck talk is "quacking" me up (sorry)

Victor, is that lemonbalm invasive? Lovely colour.

Yes it is. I'm sorry I planted it, but I leave a few around. Smells more like Lemon Pledge than real lemons.

Not quite in full bloom - soon though. Jealous of Victor so here goes.

A close up of the redbud blooms - this tree was a stick from the auburn society at one time. My wife thought I was nuts with the stick farm I had. Everything goes up eventually.

A flowery crab apple getting ready.

Shirazz coming along nicely

Very nice, Bill! Shirazz looks good.

a weepy redbud i've had for a couple years. still haven't found the right spot for it. it was in the ground and i think i have the spot for it in front of the house. first year it has provided a couple blooms.

flowering almond getting close

more bleeding hearts - I have these sprouting up all over the yard.

wisteria buds - have only had one or two in the past this year it looks like there will be 20 or so - finally starting only took 9 years!!

Wow, everything looks so amazing. I'm getting inspired here.....

Looking good, Bill! Wow - 9 years for the first flowers. I'm sure you'll savor it!

what a great "covey" (or lavender twist) redbud. I think that tey look good just about anywhere.

sorry about your frost again pixie :-( I know how frustrating that is. what blooms on my magnolia elizabeth didn't freeze off, turned white and are stil white with brown.

Jo Ann---you walls look great! nice work!

victor.... this blushing lady tulip would fit great into one of my color schemes. Do you think that the moles and gophers would leave it alone? Or are you lucky enough to not have any of the critters? Even if I do manage to get rid of one of the buggers, more will come since the area around me is mostly forests.

Don't have those, but I do have lots of deer and usually don't grow tulips. These are in my 30 inch high veggie boxes and will have to be re-planted in the ground. At that point I will spray them and hope.

Here are two Duchess of Edinburgh clematis buds.

A combo I like - Weigela 'Midnight Wine' and Lemon Balm.

P. 'Coppertina' with Nandina domestica behind it.

Cotinus 'Grace' again.

Tiarella 'Sugar and Spice'.

Viburnum 'Conoy'.

Sweet woodruff.
