Although I can't take credit for 99% of the flowers in our yard (they were planted by the prior owners), I do get 100% of the pleasure in nurturing them, watching them grow, cutting a few for the house, and enjoying the wonderful aroma of some. I'm planning a few changes to our floral abundance:
- Thin out the irises that are starting to take over the yard.
- Move around some of the daffodils...some clumps are too much, others too sparse, and I'd like to make them juuussst right.
- Thin out one of my climatis plants...it's downright unruly!
- And next year I'll corral in our lovely peonies so they don't fall over.
But for now, I thought I'd share some pics of our floral bliss. Here are some Blue Flags and our unruly Climatis:
Here is my favorite of our 4 Climatis bushes (mind you, only 2 of them have flowered so far, but this is SO FAR my favorite). Just look at that color!
This is a strange Peony bush, it grows both pink and white blooms:
Another of our Peony bushy, this was such a perfect bloom, I couldn't resist!
And here is a picture of a bloom on my unruly Climatis bush, such a nice white, with a touch of purple:
