Spring Blooms - Part 12

Nice photos, Victor.
Thanks for showing us your gardening efforts.

Thank you, Candyce.

Victor, that last shot of Ramona is lovely!

Humming birds love 'Midnight' Fuschia.

Niobe's 1st bloom of the season.

My oldest and most prolific geranium which is a noid.

A noid iris to go with the geranium.

Here's another noid Iris...I have a whole collection of them! LOL

Lilac 'Sensation'

This one was not open all the way yet...this is 'Halloween Halo' .

Lamium

Wild Honeysuckle.....meaning I did not plant it, M.N. and the birds did.

Mud splattered but i grew it from seed...'Baby Blue Eyes'

My purple Lilac..(notice in the background the branches taken off that tree? Thats how high the snow was that damaged them)

The white lilac tree

'Mandarin Lights' Azalea

oh my goodness... gorgeous blooms... great work... you guys are really talented... Jan I am glad you are posting... it was so good to talk to you that day... I miss you and George... hope to visit you again sometime this year...

the first daisy to open... and she is from seeds... planted last year....

I love that lilac, Pixie. Is it very fragrant? I'm planning on adding a few lilacs and that one caught my eye.

I was asking about Sensation. You have quite a collection!!

Wonderful shots, Celeste. Even your Niobe bloomed before mine! "Sensation' is gorgeous. Which lamium is that? Looks familiar.

Celeste - what a noid iris means??? I don't remember seeing this name... I have been looking to buy some... have been looking at Sutton's website... pretty gorgeous ones you have...

Sensation smells nice...but i think they all do!

Lamium is one i've had and it has not spread like crazy for me...it's been really slow if anything. I think it's called "Hermans Pride'

Kass,
Noid=No identification (No ID)

oh... thanks... now I feel dumb!!!!! not the first time....lol....

Don't feel bad, Kassia. I have a similar collection of noid iris, too! I think we all just might have part of that collection. One thing that's good about that is, they are certainly easy to find!

Kass, it took me a while to figure out what cultivar 'noid' was, too! Ha ha! It's a common one, isn't it?

Wonderful shots everyone!! Victor, I love that last one of Ramona.

I have a few also

I forgot a NOID...this one is kind of shaded looking.

Not a noid......found the tag!! 'Little Rock Celebrity '

One more....this one looks white/dk purple but when it first opens it's pale lavender/dk. purple

Pansy face?

Budding tonight....can't wait till tomorrow!

wow, a busy day it looks as it was for everyone. Great pictures all. I'm glad that I'm not the only one with a bunch of plants named "noid"!!

Pixie, your lilacs are huge! Is sensation your favorite? It's definitely on the top end of the list for me.

probably my favorite dwarf rhododendron.

Rhody indicum "balsaminiflora"

an azalea that I think is best discribed as a hot pink flower ball....... azalea homebush.

the inside of a flower of magnolia watsonii

an odd Cornus kousa

a spirea yet to open

an bitten hydrangea floret

a different hydrangea floret

artemesia...... I'm not sure what kind. but, it's pretty!

Everyone has beautiful pics.
I planted a Sensation lilac a few years ago, but it didn't survive. It is beautiful.
