Spring 2010 Bloom Season
|
|
4/20 /2010
A beautiful spring
day. Flowers in bloom. Does it get any better than this?
I even have a helper with garden chores. (He can dig alot
faster than I can!)
Actually, he is a "good boy" ... |
|
I'm sure
many of you just like to look at pictures of the pretty flowers
... which is fine. But rather than listing photos alphabetically,
we are listing photos in the order in which they have bloomed.
Hopefully, this will convey some idea of EARLY - MID - LATE
season bloomers. One caveat, many of the plants are 1st year
specimens. As a result, they may be less well established
and/or smaller in size which could result in a later bloom
than would normally be expected.
|
While
the photos are being posted in order of bloom, we are also
including on this page an ALPHABETICAL listing for those
interested in finding a photo of a particular cultivar.
Again, we do NOT SELL any plants. For those interested in
adding a specific plant to their own garden, we have tried
to include on each photo a link to either a web site or email
address of where the plant was obtained from. Please bear
in mind that a particular nursury might offer an iris for
sale one year, but then withdraw the item the following season
to allow for sufficient increase so it can be re-listed the
following year.
