    One of the most amazing things about this time of year is how quickly things change in the garden. The blooms from last week are just a memory now, and there are new ones to replace them.
    The Iris are starting to bloom this week

    Absolutely beautiful. Isn't it exciting to look forward to that nature will give you.

    I think we have about 100 new plants to bury today. I can't wait to see what they will look like this evening.

    I think I will count them today just to see how crazy we are....

    Very pretty...I especially love the color of the columbine. Some critter seems to have trampled through my flower bed and made a mess of some of my columbine.

    Beautiful Netty. Most of my Spring color is gone for this year, summer plants are beginning to show color now. I miss my Iris :'(

    Love them all too. Can't wait to see the next batch.
    I always enjoy when you show that overall of the beds... it's definitely a show-stopper!
