Goodmorning Garden

Soft Sunday Morning

I took a quick walkwith my camera this morning to discover

the ever-changingspring garden.

Things are happeningso fast in my garden I don’t want to miss a thing!

Some of the Scilla are bloomingin the east garden. 

 The Spiderwort, avigorous plant is popping up everywhere – self seeder you have to keep your eyeon!

I bought these beautieson clearance at Lowes –

 I misplaced their name tag.

My heart skipped a beatwith excitement – the Peonies have

buds already – they usuallybloom in May.

The Hellebora are stillperforming exceptionally well this year

I am becoming very fondof the Knockout roses – these pink ones are the backdrop to the flowers in thefront garden.

I transplanted theseIris and the Crape Myrtle last year to the front bed – I love the contrast inthe color of the bloom to the new leaves. Yes, we Crape murder.

I am thrilled at theprogress of my newest garden dear – the Eden rose my son gave me for Christmas.Several buds are already on this baby bush!

The La Marne – my delight!This large, old rose bush was one of the draws to purchasing this house.

This sweetlittle rose is one of my mystery roses. I was gifted a number of roses from a neighborwho got tired of her roses that she rooted from an old garden in town – I havetagged the unknown roses and hope to discover their names this year 

Another Lowes clearancebuy – these Dianthus are just like candy in the garden. 

More clearance buys fromLowes earlier this year. 

Another mystery rose – Iadore this rose for its beautiful color, draping branches and sweet fragrance. 

 Our Westside brick patiohad to be lifted – my husband replaced all the plumbing in our house – the lineto the meter ran underneath the patio. Despite this and because of the mildwinter, these Snapdragons are amazing!

Azaleas – what southerngarden would be complete without them.

My newest Knockout roses–

clearance last summerfrom K-Mart!

While moving thingsaround this spring, I created a small container garden with Hosta, Jacob’sLadder, Spiderwort and pansies.

The wee little fairiesare coming!

The Columbine arebeginning to bloom!
