Pictures from the garden

My first clematis bloom, my new Japanese maple-Red Dragon, Louisiana iris buds, orange amaryllis, and a dwarf Japanese maple.

Beautiful! We're a little behind, but my clematis do have buds! I'm terrible about posting pics but will get around to it one of these days.

Very pretty, I'll have to get some pics of my blooming clemstis and la iris. I'm in zone 8 yet my iris are blooming, a few new blooms and lots of yellow flags.

I actually had blooms on Gurnsey Cream clematis really early, but the others are just poking along. Yellow flag iris are blooming here everywhere, but that is one I don't have in my yard.

Behind on seeing this thread, but love that orange amaryllis and the Japanese maples........

Very pretty clematis. Love the orange amaryllis! Does it have a variegated leaf??

The variegated leaf is a New Zealand Flax, the amaryllis is just a regular amaryllis.

Flower on Split leaf Philodendron, "Double Record" amaryllis, my new arbor.

All gorgeous! Love your new arbor!

Thanks, my hubby built it for me for Christmas!

I have never seen that split leaf philodendron before either.............guess it is a tropical something...but I like it. love the amaryllis as well. That arbor will really be lovely when it is covered! What plans did you say you used for that? I have a place where I need to get my husband on building one ..............

Plans from lowes.com for the arbor.

Thank you!
