Virtual flowers for Cop Car on this Mother's Day.
The crabapple looks to be doing really well this year - it isn't even blooming yet, those are just the buds.
This is the only picture that wasn't taken yesterday afternoon
The phlox over by the swamp took a couple of extra days to bloom. The specs of red are English primrose and to the far right are lupine foliage from seeds a couple of years ago
Rosalie Figge iris. The only reason it is blooming is I bought it a couple of weeks ago with buds on it to plant in the newest garden (post of planting).
The daffs are doing well in their 2nd year
Blue Jacket Hyacinths. Unfortunately they don't make scratch-n-sniff monitors or I could send the beautiful scent to you. The redish foliage is one of the peonies
I'm happy that the catbird pair are back and have once again claimed the rhodie as their home.
Mother Nature sure timed all those beautiful blooms right.
Many thanks for the lovely Mother's Day florals. Beautiful! You have such a wide variety of plants, and each is more beautiful than any other! I think the Tahiti is striking and I can imagine the hyacinth scent. You really must get a photo of the crabapple in full bloom, please.
It's been at least a decade since my last sighting of a catbird. I don't even recall where it was - not even what state. Oy! Such a memory, I have.

I didn't mention that Tahiti also has a lovely scent (not quite as strong as the hyacinth, but not faint either).

Great! BTW: I failed to mention the lovely dandelions that echo the yellows of the daffodils. Not only are dandelions pretty, but one won't starve as long as there is a healthy crop of them.
