| Looking over my spring photos, I see I missed a couple. Gives me a good excuse to include my favorite Siberian Iris photo--don't you just love it?
Dublin Bay Climber--there is a white clematis growing through this climber, but it has barely started blooming yet--one white bloom on the wrong side of the pillar. I'll have to take more pictures later when it is in full bloom along with the rose--red and white combination!
Dublin Bay Climber -- again
Gourmet Popcorn--this smaller semi-sprawling rose is a power bloomer, to be sure.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, with unknown peony--Guadalupe is a strong blooming floribunda. The peony was on the property, in a neglected dark corner, when I moved here over 25 years ago. I'm guessing it is Bowl of Beauty--a beauty, at any rate!
Eutin, with Cherry Parfait behind it, and mini Green Ice at its feet. I think I got the close-up techniques down now, but I still can't get real clear pictures when I try broader landscape shots. Will work on that. In the meantime, enjoy Eutin which has just opened and not yet in full bloom.
Elina--partly opened bud. She's a terrific bloomer once she starts in.
Dark Blue Siberian Iris--just love these jewel tones! See what I mean about this beauty?

| I love your garden, Kate - such a variety of vivid colors. I got to order those dark blue Siberian Iris, blue is my favorite in the garden. I'm glad that I planted "Bowl of Beauty" peony last fall. Thanks for the show. |

| Lots of great photos, Kate. My Dublin Bay is really blooming now but not Gourmet Popcorn, yet. My GP is a full-size standard. Your peony is incredible! I don't think we can grow peonies here-too warm, I believe. |

| Wow, Kate...your garden is just so beautiful! I love the color combinations that you have put together. We grow some of the same roses but I really like the way you have put yours together. Hope you will continue to post more garden photos. Lesley |
