Bloomin' Tuesday!

As spring progresses,
we seem to be blessed
with more and more color in the garden.
Come take a stroll...

  1. I just love your lantana. I've always wanted to try it, but wonder if it would find our chilly summer nights agreeable. They might need sweaters-LOL!

  4. Daisy, I love the blue-eyed grass and salvia, as well as the native milkweed (we know it as "tropical" milkweed where I live, for you see, it is not native to my area!), and the lantana. I grow lantana too but it is an annual here. Thanks for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment.
    Blessings, Beth

  5. I love milkweed. We had a great milkweed plant at the last house and it was just getting bigger and prettier. I miss it!

  6. Wow! you have so many wonderful plants in bloom now. I love the Gaillardia and the native Petunia. Blue Eyed grass is so pretty with its little blue blooms. I had a volunteer come up in my garden and I was so excited about it. LOL! Have a lovely week.

  9. Hi Daisy, I just came from Sue's blog, where I was not able to leave a comment, and she was way behind us. You are way ahead. I am so excited to get to where you are. Still, I am enjoying the unfolding of spring here.

    I have one clump of blue eyed grass, and am glad to see yours is still blooming. I saw some more at our local hardware store. Maybe I'll get another clump of it.

    I transplanted some of my wild petunia into the new planting area. It seems to be doing OK. The rain we've had has helped everything I've moved around.
