Forgot to include this little guy
They are gorgeous - can you name them for us?
Pictures 1,3 & 4 are different types of oxalis. 2 is a misc daffodil that came in a mix. 4 is a variety of Tulbaghia. 6 is a unidentified cyranthus
Desert, thanks for sharing your pretty little flowers for a day here that is sunny and 50 degrees with nothing blooming yet! :( I keep looking at my gardens and watching them slowly wake up. I have lots of little bulbs peeking their little green leaves up.
Oxalis are so sweet. Most of them will not make it outside here in zone 6b. I like their leaves as well as their dainty flowers.
On your second post, the third flower, it looks like an allium. Tulbahgia is a new one to me. When I looked it up on DG, it grows in zone 7 or warmer which is probably why I am unfamiliar with it.
Your last photo, your fourth post, looks like Iris riticulata: http://northernshade.ca/2010/04/27/gorgeous-iris-reticulata-cantab/
Whatever it is, it is beautiful.
Birder you could be right about the last one. I have no idea where I even got them from but they sure are cute little flowers and were a nice surprise.
I have had Iris riticulata in the past. They are suppose to naturalize, but mine disappeared. :(
Again, thanks for sharing your pretty spring flowers. Keep them coming!
