Fascinating ... I wish I have one beautiful garden like yours :)
Sick of flowers?! Never!!!!!
Lovely post Em, love the cercis especially and I enjoyed my little walk around your garden. Your veg garden looks great, how are things progressing there? You've seen my berries and other fruit, how about showing me yours? ;-)
Beautiful flowers, they all look so nice.
Thanks for sharing :)
OMG! I love the fothergillia!
Sis
Sick of flowers? I should say not! They're just beginning! Isn't it wonderful to see things blooming again? We saw fabulous magnolias, redbuds and more on our trip to Rochester last weekend, and our son and DIL have a glorious weeping cherry.
I love those epimediums! We just planted a double white lilac. Looks like it'll be a good year for lilacs. Our bushes are about to burst into bloom, and the crabapple blossoms are opening.
Our dogwood is still small. No blooms yet, but at least it survived the winter!
The fothergillia is fascinating.
su chua phin, thanks for your generous comments!
ye, berries are shy right now, they need to be older. thanks for the comments!
sis, maybe bro will give you a fothergillia too?
kerri, thanks for your always generous comments! this is my favorite time of year, and i hope we both have many mays ahead of us. it's funny, we planted a double white lilac too! it's not going to flower this year, thought.
