Some of the things growing in our garden...Well the rain just doesn't want to seem to let up. For the most part, our garden hasn't suffered too much. Some of the grass at our place has really gotten drowned, but most of the key vegetation is surviving so far... Some of my girlfriends Purple Iris ( photo / image / picture from SevenTooMany's Garden ) And I know Toni was talking about how her Iris smelled like popsicles, so I took one in and ours smell like popsicles too, or something very sweet and fresh. Sweet and Fresh fragrance from our iris ( photo / image / picture from SevenTooMany's Garden ) We have 2 Chester Thornless Blackerry bushes and the older, bigger one is building blooms. This is just the second year for the smaller one so it seems to be concentrating on mainly vegetative growth.

I don't know if it likes where it's planted too much since it's like clay and is always moist there, yet it's slowly growing and blooming. We just planted the foxglove behind it - I hope it takes.

The greener, yellow rose bush has the makings of many blooms as well, but none has opened yet.

I don't think they had a label and they remind me of Astible blooms but they are annuals so they may be Celosia. I think they look neat following the small sidewalk that leads to our door.

I just got done mowing the grass on Saturday and we can't really enjoy the outside, with it looking so neat, for a while. I did see a baby rabbit today come running from under a bush, so I keep the hopes up for calm sunshine. Last edited: Sun May 01, 2011 7:15 pm This blog entry has been viewed 1263 times
