Post a CommentTruly beautiful flowers.
Ugh, I have so much trouble growing poppies, and my iris haven't bloomed in years! (Can't be because we're in MN, because the neighbors across the street do fine with them. Maybe mine don't get enough sun on my side?) I'm aching for spring, and viewing these just boosted my spirits. Thanks!
These are lovely, and that orange one is so vibrant! thank you for your lovely comments on my site, as well. Cheers!
And so are these! Your garden is indeed something to be proud of. Again, stellar job!
Quite a green thumb Pikie. I personally think the Iris is the prettiest, and my mom is nuts over creeping phlox. Beautiful garden.
Beautiful, thank you so much for sharing this!
These are beautiful. TY.
So beautiful! Thanks so much for posting these!
Yes, the poppy's the winner, hands down, Pikie. I also like the little roadside poppies that bloom for a day. I'm one of those back-to-original type persons. Great minds think alike. I made my first slideshow on Portulacas growing in our beds. It's good to see you are posting again, as you missed May altogether!
beautiful! Thanks for sharing
