Clematis

I sure hope my weeds will go to collage.  You know most if not all of our flowers today was once wild flowers, and some people may have looked on some of them as weeds. I was so shocked when Carrel told me my Clematis was blooming.  I had taken pictures of them yesterday not one open, today I have 3.  I have another one I bought last year, it has 2 buds.  My lambs Ear bloomed and then died last year,  but it most have made seed they have really come up around the new Clematis.  I hope they will shade the roots.  I do not belong to the group that shows their flowers every month on the fifteenth but maybe some new people will accidentally find mine.  I have a lot of blooms today.  Lot of Daffodils.

I have lots of Iris, this purple one is from Carrel yard, he moved it because it was taking up most of his flower bed.  I like them along my back fence the neighbors in behind me have something pretty to look at.  I am going to move some to the front garden beds, because they bloom so early.  The ones I have in front will bloom  a little later.  The other two Iris I have blooming now where here when I moved here. 

Carrel has finally decided to plant something besides roses in his yard.  Last fall we dug up my yellow and orange Oriental lilies, he planted them in between his roses.  The rose bed is twelve feet wide, he has day lilies in front of the roses, now after my Camellias bloomed all winter,  he wants two.  This one has really showed out, started in late November and is still blooming.  Then he will have something blooming in the winter.  I had one to start last month it is small but has beautiful full blooms.

in earlyThis is a ground cover my neighbor gave me has pretty blue flowers in early spring.

My Azaleas are beginning to bloom, this is my favorite color.  I have eight bushes, six in front and two in back.  After they bloom I will cut them back and fertilize.  All the bushes have a lot of buds, they should be very pretty.  I have two of these on the side, in a four by eight feet bed.  I also have Hyacinths but I have to plant more.  I moved two Hostas so now the holes have to be filled with Hyacinths.

I hope you have enjoyed this blog page, of the flowers I have blooming the fifteenth of March.  Thank you for watching my garden grow and bloom and hope you will grow one of your own.  Happy gardening   to you from me, Juanita.
