Spring is coming! Share your pictures...
« on: Feb 27, 2009, 07:36:31 PM »
My crocus are up!  :Glee:

This one is my favorite:



Also a pretty one:



And my mini daffodils:



For those still dealing with snow, proof that spring is on it's way.  :wink5:  For those in warmer parts, do you have any to share?

Oh I forgot to plant crocus again.  Silly me.  They are beautiful Sarah!  My mini's are about a week behind yours this year so I should have some pictures next week of them.

I don't have any up yet.  I'm so looking forward to seeing them.  Well it will probably be next month before they come up.  I can't believe oregon beat me to the blooms.

Tina said this is a wallflower.  It has 3 different colored flowers on the same plant.

Beautiful flowers, Ladies! :grinnnn:

I have crocus somewhere, too, Sarah. Can't really remember where they are planted, but will see them when they bloom I guess... :giggle:

Sheri, that wallflower is gorgeous! :) Is it a bulb flower?

Love the wall flower.  I'll have to see if it will grow in my area.

I have daffodils starting to bloom sporatically.  Hopefully I'll have a better show next year.  I'm thinking the soil in that bed maybe nitrogen pour because of the amount of bark they poured on top of it.  It's just a thought.  Whatever it is it didn't compose like mulch normally does.

Sorry no pictures.

I have just a few things blooming in the yard.

Pulmonaria


Daffodils (They are in pretty sad shape now)


And a couple of primrose among the buttercups.

Here are a few pics from the other morning of my azalea bushes blooming. They have about twice as many blooms right now- I'm gonna get more pics in a minute!








And one from last year-

More from today-


The whole area- can't see the blooms so well, but it looks nice and Spring-ish out!




And a ton of bloom buds waiting to open!


We have another week or so before peak time. I'll try to keep getting more pics as they fillout!

Triss, that pulmonaria is beautiful. Is it blue and purple? :grinnnn: I have never tried to grow primrose, but I think they are pretty. Do they like a lot of sun?

Tonya, my azaleas are blooming, also. I have the pink ones, too. I was afraid the cold weather that keeps sneaking up on us would get them, but they are still doing okay. Still full of buds, too...



I forgot what this one is. Some type of iris, I think...



I love this yellow iris...



Is that white flower a dogwood bloom? I love dogwoods... :BigGrin:

Beautiful!  My azalea is not doing well.  I hope it perks up.

Dianna- the white flower in my post is a white azalea- they are my favorite!! Some of the flowers had pink streaks in them last year from being so close and cross-pollinating with the pink ones! I have a pic somewhere.....

LOVE the iris' they are my absolute favorite flowers!!

Tonya, I bought Megan some white azaleas for the foundation of her house. I think they are really pretty.. :grinnnn:

My azaleas are bursting out with color all over now around the gazebo. They look sooo pretty...



The bugleweed (ajuga) is in full bloom, too. It is gorgeous! :grinnnn:

Beautiful Dianna.  I do not think my azalea is going to make it, it is not looking too good.
My ajuga is not as "full bloom" as yours.  I still need to get out there and take pics.
