Mine, too, trish. Mother had the most beautiful bulb gardens when the three of us were growing up.
Roses and the bulb plants, orchid cactus and real orchids used to fill my shade garden and all the sunny spots. They will again.
Rho, we have a mud day today. Three days of rain. What a mess! It snowed at sea level where our daughters live which is so unheard of!
Thanks Karen, it's a bi-color from a friend from several years ago. I envy you in that you can grow flowers that we can only get one or two seasons out of in SoCal, so be sure to take lovely photos for us? Your tulips are perfectly gorgeous.
Iris have always been my mother's favorite flower, especially those old-fashioned bearded ones. She had some wherever her garden was! Thanks for sharing that beauty.
It's so good to see such beautiful flowers, if only on a photo for the time being, while we still have deepest winter over here - there's still hope for spring it seems! Best wishes from Austria!
I can't wait til the bi color yellow blooms. There may even be some peach colored survivors. The tallest purple Beardeds have always bloomed early. The rain spoiled the blossoms but there are more coming out still. I really want my garden back to it's former splendor. It's become pretty raggedy.
Jessie, soon you will be having some flowers. We have to water the garden all winter except for February and March usually.
Jane, my mother loved them too. All the iris families where in her flower beds.
Jane,Rissa, Pugknits, Dipsy, and everyone, it's always a pleasure to share flowers. You will all be coming out of winter soon, too.
If I get my wish, we will go out to the desert and gets some desert wildflower pictures to share here. A group from out rockhound club might be going in a few weeks.
so purty -- I could take pictures of mud mud and more mud :D Of course poor Trish in rain starved AZ would enjoy seeing mud....
