Backyard’s First Blooms

Backyard’s First Blooms

I spent the afternoon outside today…….

…….it’s beautiful here, 85 degrees and NO humidity!!

As I looked around, I noticed Mother Nature beginning her ‘magic’ and thought I’d share some of it with you!

Our honeysuckle is blooming proudly and smells heavenly!

I just love our giant Iris’………

Even when they’re not blooming, the greenery, form and design they give to the yard is massive!

    Love your garden! Great flowers! that green gnome is precious and I would love it, except ive seen too many scary movies so a major no-no in my house.
