    My oh my what wonderful plants you've got! And they're all blooming now? Gosh, our clematis have hardly started to grow yet. :D Your jack-in-the-pulpit will get bigger as it matures, and will propagate itself too, just be patient. :D I've got three different ones, although I haven's seen the third one yet. It might be a goner due to the winters we've had. :(

    I love your variety of Clematis. I think I need to make a trip to the garden center to find myself one!
    Looking very good Calin!

    Thank you all for the nice comments!
    Yes, Droopy, all blooming now or within a range of a week, no more than two.
    Sometimes I am lazy to copy pics from camera to laptop, from laptop to webshots and then to the forums.
    But if you click on the pictures down on the right side there's info about the Camera and the date it was actually taken...sometimes I refer to last year's pictures to see if something is coming up or not, is late in bloom or early and so on. It's fun!

    I love funny plants like Arisaema. That Jack I got in a trade, and there were more smaller ones but this is the only one surviver. Also had Sauromatum venosum but they didn't come up yet.

    Also... paid a lot of money for two Arisaema griffithii but there's no sign yet :(

    Last year towards the end of May I had leaves! Now, NOTHING!

    Really COLD winter... my dad's 3 big fig trees froze up. And this is just an example!

    Calin, You have so many beautiful flowers. How much room do you have to garden on? a small plot or a tiny spot, or a huge area???? do you live where you garden or do you have to travel to get there? everything is an "I want" picture, but I don't have the time for them :( Maybe if I retire from vegetable gardening and farm markets, but for now that takes all my time. and now I have to go pick strawberries...bye bye.

    Carolyn, I would consider my flower garden to be...SMALL but when I see all the weeds I wish it was even SMALLER!
    I only know meters so I can't really express. But I promise to measure it this Saturday and take an overview pic. (the overview is not great - much work to do with the landscaping, that's why you mainly see close-ups :)

    It's about 10 km (6-7 miles?) from the city I live in. It's a neighboring village where parents got a house, garden, some animals.

    My gardening time is about 2 afternoons after work (I get there around 5.30 and head back home when it gets dark) and Saturdays. Yes, I sacrifice my Saturdays!

    Teo, well, lesson to be learned about that Arisaema. I feel bad. Could have used the money for something else :)

    OK. Some fresh pics from yesterday:

    Guess I could send you some roots/seeds (if it makes any, last year I didn't check).
    I got it in a trade, but found it even in the woods!

    Thankyou Calin for the lovely photos, your garden looks like it is somewhere where I would like to walk and and sit for a few days and really enjoy your plants and appreciate the work you have done...I love it!
