Spring Riot

It is a riot of color breaking out in the garden. I find myself out there with the camera everyday.




Hey this little guy is trying to eat my flowers.



The Iris are at their peak.

I wish I could capture the color of my Japanese Maple. It is so deep burgundy.

Have you ever seen one of these trees? It is a Henry Lauder's Walking Stick. Strange name and strange little tree with its curly twisted branches.

    I love your Spring flowers! My irises have another couple of weeks to go before they bloom. When we lived in SoCal there were lots of snails in the garden. I would collect them in a bucket every evening.

    Just beautiful! I spent all day in the yard yesterday mowing, dethatching, fertilizing and planting new flowers. So looking forward to a pretty spring and summer. You are so far ahead of me!

    Isn't spring wonderful! Especially this one since it came early....does that mean we're going to have a long hot summer?
    All your flowers are just gorgeous....I too can't stay out of the yard with my camera.
    Have a great day!!

    Hello dear friend,
    Love this post - I wanted to go outside this morning to get some flowers to make an arrangement - soddened - after days of rain - some of my blooms will live their life weighted down! You should share this with Fishtail Cottage's Cottage Flora Thursday! Lots of lovely spring posts there!
    Have a great day!
    Kathy
