A Walk Around the Garden

One thing I really love to do is to stroll around the property early in the morning to look at all of our plants. I usually do this before work. People probably think I am crazy for actually enjoying what I work so hard for.
I especially love to look at all the new growth and to see what is about to bloom. Here are some photos for today…
This is a Lily of the Valley…and Laura’s absolute favorite flower in the world. We have a bunch of them lined all the way down the driveway.
Here is our transplanted Hosta. This plant was in the same triangle garden, but I moved it closer to the front when I cleaned the garden out last Autumn.
Above is the new China Boy Holly I just purchased because the old ones that I planted last Autumn were looking a little ragged. By the way, I pruned them and they are coming back. Look at all that new growth!!!
Here is the Bearded Iris that I separated and replanted last summer. Bearded Iris is quite durable. It’s almost like you can run over the plant with a truck and it will still grow. Everything I replanted came in beautifully.
