We share many of the same plants it seems. I love that apricot iris. Mine seem to be mostly darker, though I do love the burgundy one. Thank you for this peek into your world. I loved it.
SPRING!! i LOVE the old roses on the old fence!! weigela? never heard of that one...but what a bush!! so overloaded with flowers...it's beautiful!!! like it's exploding!! love that too!!
where i am...we still have flowers blooming...it's not gotten cold enough yet to turn the leaves...i hope it does soon though!!
PS. this is one of the necest weigelas I've seen - they can get pretty leggy and straggly. There's a plain pink and a dark pink available, but I like this variegated one.
oh my goodness your photos are like a breath of fresh air! the flowers are just beautiful and hopeful.. all we see here in the northeast USA is the destruction from Sandy.... I am your newest follower..pls follow back if you can.
Oh Alexia, your spring garden is heavenly! You really captured their beauty....I truly am a fan of spring!

Thanks EC. The apricot one is lovely, but doesn't survive spring winds very well.
DeleteLove the apricot Iris. We have some uninspiring purple ones which withdrew their flowers last year, some protest we assumed.
ReplyDeleteCheers Kiwi. My preferred irises are the Japanese ones, but in a rented garden, you take what you get :)

Deleteit's really beautiful...think i'll have to google it and see if they can be grown here!!
DeleteAhhh, spring. Everything's going into hibernation here, but at least I get to enjoy it vicariously through your pictures.
ReplyDeleteThank you Max. I loved your travelling kid pics!
DeleteVery pretty, Alexia.
ReplyDeleteHere, winter is finally making rumbling noises...I think we're getting snow Tuesday night.

Snow! gosh I don't like the sound of that. Keep warm, thunder:)
DeleteI think that Iris is smiling at the camera. (Unfortunately, it has sort of an Audrey II expression.) :D
ReplyDeleteAudrey II - poor innocent little iris ...
DeleteI believe I could sit in your garden and enjoy the ambience with little trouble or effort at all!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of beautiful blooms!
I hope you don't mind, Alexia...but I've added your blog to my list of blogs that I read...I've over here...across the ditch...in the Land of Oz! :)
