Garden Bloggers Bloom Day

Almost forgot what day it was, I was checking on some blogs this noon and  noticed the date. I ran out to take some quick shots.  The temp is 67 and it just started to rain. Our spring has been really slow in coming this year . The bad thing about that is, the flowers bloom later but the good thing is, the blooms last longer .   My first peony  is opening today……….

The poppies are also blooming …

My cat mint low walker always does well, I just keep dividing it, and now  I have it all over the garden where ever I need  a  place filled .  I started with one small plant from Shopko years ago. Of course I also have to pull out a lot cause it really seeds itself profusely.

I bought this blue bottle at a garage sale for a $1.00. A hole was drilled in the side for a string of lights. I removed the lights and connected a water pump . Love it !!
