A bunch more opened yesterday, but it was drizzly, so I wasn't able to get decent pics of some of them. Today there's a 50% chance of rain again all day, so I might not have any better luck. But here are some less-than-perfect shots from yesterday.

SDB 'Blueberry Tart' is a maiden bloomer for which I've been eagerly waiting. It's blooming a tiny little flower about 1/4" off of the soil. It also has no increase, so there's a chance of bloomout. Poor little rz had a hard time settling in with dogs, cats, and deer uprooting it several times last summer and fall. Under the circumstances, even this miniscule bloom is an impressive feat.
