Happy May dear readers! Here is our first columbine bloom of the year. I think it's a McKanna's Giant Columbine that reseeded from one of our original plants.
The Widow's Tears are in full bloom. We used to have both white and blue flowers but so far just white are blooming this year.
Last week I posted our
first dark and light blue iris blooms of the year and now you can see we have a whole lot of irises blooming (and we still have a whole lot sitting in pots and buckets to be replanted from the
excavation too).
This is our first rose off of our bicolor big rose. I don't remember the real name so I think of it as my strawberries and cream rose.
I think this is the same tulip I posted about
last week and it's still quite lovely.
Some of the birds have been poking at our seedling pots but these cosmos seedlings that Ben started back in March are still looking good. I really should divide them or thin them soon. There's so much to do in the garden and only so much time to do it all. My plan for the cosmos was to put them in big pots so when they get tall they'll block an unsightly view from one of our windows but the county has a contractor who's had a bunch of equipment parked near our house for months now and we might just plant them on the street side to block the equipment view instead. Of course if enough of the seedlings survive we could do both.
What's growing in your neck of the woods? May God bless you!
