Oh these are gorgeous!!!!

You are going to have a nice show when these come out...be sure and post a picture!

I love when the hostas first come up...they always look so fresh and healthy.

What a show!

You're not the only one Talljim...it has been snowing here now for the past 5 hours, The funny part is I finally got around to taking my snow tires off 4 days ago.

Yes today....this will be a Mother's Day to remember for sure.
I doubt if the garden centers will be doing a booming business today .

A heat wave....really? Now I am envious,lol!

Can you imagine a truck going down the highway with one of those in the back of it!!

wonderful close up!

I understand what you mean Andrew when you say this does too well in some places. I moved this plant a couple of years ago to a shady area overrun with vinca, totally ignored it and it comes up all the same. In fact some of it still appears in the original location, even though it has to immerge from under a layer of plastic, gravel and 3 concrete stepping blocks.

Wow!

Lovely deep color!

This spring garden is looking great. You are at least a couple of weeks ahead of us here on the east coast. I had one daffodil bloom today.

That is so cool....didn't know you could get such a thing.There was as web cam in a bald eagles' nest last year that was a very popular site especially for the school kids.

Thankyou so much for adding the country ... it makes it so much easier when reading features to have this information at hand. With so many new members joining daily, it is hard to remember who lives where. This does the trick!

Great compo of complimentary colors.

Yes you must check every day to stay on top of this pest!

It's neat how the purple stamens match the purple stems on this plant.

The Keukenhof is an amazing place to visit. Do go if you get the chance!

Lovely green textures here!

awesome!

Oh this is a wonderful photo!

Thankyou for posting this article and 'hats off ' to you as you document each stage and condition so well. I cannot imagine the work involved in maintaining this spectacular garden site. It must be wonderful for all of those fortunate enough to visit.

Portraits indeed!

An insect's eye level....nice shot Jacque!

What a great idea for a planter!

Yes it was a great day. Everyone was out with their dogs and kids.

Love this color combination!

Thank you for the id. I knew someone could help me out here. I will add them to my garden list.

A little treat for myself . Thought it might be nice on those hot summer days. Have been watching the sun in the backyard to try and decide the best location for it. I love the fact that it is solar and that there are no wires in the way.
