I was so happy that the temps were on the cool site, just to be able to enjoy the blooming plants a little while longer.
I guess , we should enjoy them as long as we can since the temps are starting to shoot up.
Please post pictures of your blooming plants.
Here there are some of mine: water iris from Detrick. Thanks again !
Amaryllis. It multiplied through the years and it puts quite a show.
Not a very good picture but I am so glad that I had my Philadelphus (mock orange) blooming. The fragrance is unbelievable.
Not to distract, but I have a question on Amaryllis. Do they bloom more than once a year? I'm growing my first one, a gift from Marie. It set foliage and bloomed in January through early March, then it died back, and now it's setting foliage again already.
Alan
Miniature rose, blooming its little heart out.
Alan, most Amaryllis that you get around the hollidays, are forced to bloom that time , but their normal blooming period is now. I think that it will develop lots of leaves and it will bloom next year , late spring. Good luck with yours.
My dwarf, weeping mulberry , full of fruits.
The first flower for the newly planted Eden rose.
What promises to be a big and beautiful magnolia flower.
Variegated wallflower and chocolate plant blooming.
Lily bloom. Too bad it will be spent by the time I go home tonight. :O(
Drumstick allium soon to open.
Nectaroscordum Siculum-fancy name for the Bulgariam onion. lol

Last one. One more Amaryllis ready to bloom.

They are all gorgeous, Lyle, but I especially love those two iris. What is their name, please ?
I have 8 or 9 Louisiana iris plants from seeds that I collected from my friend Louise from California. They are very easy to germinate. Cannas on the other hand, not that lucky so far.
The violet bi tone is - About Town and the Apricot-Burgundy is Decadence. Those are the two that i made crosses with.
I hope you get something even more spectacular as those two !
rodica and lyle what nice show going on at your homes!
rodica this is what you have to look for after a couple of summers. this is only part of the iris.
boo there's nothing wrong with that. :)
here's the texas lady fingers or something like that. this one is loaded with buds, too! i made a couple of cuttings...

That is a monster Detrick. One plant will populate all the water features from Phoenix in 3 years . LOL
That is a nice flower Detrick !
Wow, everyone's everything looks awesome! Love that variegated wallflower, and Nancy, that hollyhock is gorgeous... it reminds me of the kleenex flowers we used to make to decorate wedding cars, lol! MY FIRST TULIPS BLOOMED TODAY!!!! (Sorry, you'd shout too if you just came out of your first Colorado winter!).
