ffq-lar Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Summer has reluctantly arrived here! Yesterday was the first day in nine months that the temperature was above 72 degrees and Den's flowers were very happy. Bear with me as I share and post one pic at a time. My wisteria on the porch. I say "my wisteria" because I badgered Den for 5 years to let me plant one there. It's about 10 years old and a faithful bloomer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffq-lar Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Lastly--one of the iris--they are just beginning to finally bloom. Thanks for letting me show off Den's hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nineva Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Ohhh Linda. The Golden Chain makes me miss Idaho. They grow like weeds there. I had them lining both sides of my property all the way to the lake. And the peonies....I had so many. The people that bought the house let all of my heirloom roses, peonies, strawberries, perennials just die. I was so heartbroken. Your pics bring back great memories and YES wasn't it nice to have some sun!!!! Looks like it is going to be one day at a time, but better than nothing.

quilted charm Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Oh, those are just beautiful! I miss having pretty flowers. We have had no rain in so long, the city has put a restriction on watering, so my poor little flowers are barely limping along, and certainly have no beautiful folage like yours. I must admit, I'm jealous;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
