    I think everyone's already used all the superlatives to describe your blooms!
    I totally love that first one... and the second one... and so and so on! All your hard work sure is paying off.

    Thanks Cheryl--I am happy with those blooms too. I am hoping that this will be a really good flower year, the start is pretty good so far.

    Exquisite! Master photographer at play and work.

    Boy, do your plants jump into spring once the days lengthen. I couldn't believe how much everything has grown since the last photos I saw! So nice to see..especially nice since so little is happening here, but will sometime soon.

    Thanks so much, Jewell. I am glad that you liked the fotos.
    I have been wondering how you have been --haven't seen you for awhile. Hope all is well.
    You are right --there has been an enormous change since the last posting of my garden. Stuff is beginning to happen now. This is a good time of the season.
    I sure hope that things will soon take-off in your lovely garden soon. Hang in there.

    Hello there, Kay-- have you been busy with your work? It is an absolute thrill to have my flowers blooming again....yes!...and emphatic YES!
    The weather is coolish, very windy and there is a little sprinkle here now and then.
    Thanks for your comments.

    Thank you SHERRY-- I am so glad that you liked the fotos.

    Thank you so much, S'MOM--It is a nice place to sit and ponder, and I try and do that inbetween working as often as possible. :)

    I just have to tell you that your garden is really breathtaking. The way you have that winding path is so nice.. Love all your flowers. They are so unusual.. So many purties, wouldn't know how to tell which is my favorite! :stew2:

    Please forgive me, Cindjo--I somehow missed reading your comments.
    That is so embarrassing. :oops:

    Thank you so much for your kind comments. I can't choose a favourite either.

    That path is just one of the paths that I have, but it is the one that is most visible from the path. I tried to make it look inviting for visitors.

    Thanks again.
