I didn't know roses were ever diamond dusted like that. Wowza is right.
Chris, that pasque flower is really pretty. Are they hard to grow?
That rose is impressive, looks like is is one of those sugared flowers they use to decorate cakes.
Hart, I bought the pasque flowers from Bluestone a few years ago, they get bigger and have more flowers every year, I guess they are not that hard to grow if they are in the right spot, good drainage seems to be important. I have not found any volunteers but I guess they will self sow.
I'd like to get the red one too.
Wrightie and Bec!
GREAT pictures!!!! You sure know how to use the macro setting!!!!
Seems you are a ways ahead of me--and you all only an hour's drive South!!!!
Most of my seedlings arew still in the flats ans cell packs. I WILL get there! I promise!
The weather has still been "iffy"--so i have not rushed to plant too many things yet.
In Gardening---patience is a HUGE virtue!!!!!

Wrightie - coild the last pix be a coreopsis?
it sure looks like a coreopsis.......... single flower
Well, I do have a couple different coreopsis, but they are no where near flowering yet and they look quite different from this guy ... so, methinks that it would have to be a type of coreopsis that I'm not aware of(?).
