Shirley,

I got the iris' today, Thank you! I have your addy from the box and will mail one of Larry's iris tubers to you on Tuesday.

Lisa

Hi Again Shirley,

I'm sorry! I left the message earlier before I opened the box. It doesn't matter to me that they weren't the ones that you had shown and you didn't have to send me extras.

Thank you
Lisa

Good evening,Ladies. I had the longest post written here & now it is out there somewhere.

Anyway, so glad to see you posting, Vic. There has been so much sickness around this Spring & really hits people hard, it seems. I do pray things will settle down for you & yours very soon.

Annie-Spartan & Annabelle Babson are blooming gorgeous for me & others are starting, thanks to your generosity. I am really enjoying them & looking forward to the others. I love the smell of them & am amazied at the beauty of them.

Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, all & treasure those memories both the good ones & the bittersweet.

Please remember, "If you love your freedom, thank a Vet".

Blessings, Margaret

have a wondeful weekend everyone and I will be back on Monday.

Jamie

Hi Ladies!

I am feeling better, thank you all!

Margaret, I love that pic!

You girls are making me jealous of your Iris blooming already, mine aren't even close!

Lisa, I did just post to your thread, I would be honored to be included! That is great what you are doing for him.

Have a great weekend if I don't talk to ya before it's over everyone! We are going to do some much needed yard and house work and take one day and go fishing : )

Take care!
Vic

Hi, everyone! I just wanted to post a quick note to let everyone know that this weekend is Bluestone Perennials' annual 1/2 price sale. Each year (at least for the past 3 years, because that's how long I've known about it) they have 1/2 price on everything on their website. I think that they do take off a few things while the sale is on but everything left is 1/2 off. (I was specifically looking for an Echinacea that was there a few days ago and isn't this morning.)

My birthday was in March. I asked for a gift certificate at Bluestone. I waited until this morning to place my order and I'm thrilled with how many items I was able to get with my money. I just wanted to share the news.

Their website is below, if I entered it correctly.

HELLO EVERYONE!

I'm off my long stretch but I still have to check in on my part time client almost everyday. I have a CPR/FIRST AID class on Tuesday, so to make it up I will go check on my him this afternoon.

MARGARET, I'm so happy that the iris are blooming for you, and that you enjoy them. In fact they are getting to be my favorite perennial. I will be sending your Brunnera and ginger this week.

Although I love my hosta, with the hosta virus going around I'm very careful what I send. So If I offer a hosta for a prize. I'm 99.9% sure it does not have a virus.

VIC SO GLAD TO SEE YOU POST, that you are doing well, and I think of you often.I will be sending you a e-mail sometime today or tomorrow.

NOW WHERE ARE THE OTHERS THAT ARE MISSING IN ACTION?

LISA, thank you so much for Larry's iris, I will send him a card, and please include his address.

FRAN,WENDY,DEE, I owe you house warming boxes, but i'm waiting on things to get done blooming first.

AMY I still owe you bearded iris "Hi" and another and I dig after bloom. ;O) :O)

Susie, your pots will be going in the mail Tuesday and I've got them packed. I'm sending two nice size boxes, and sorry, I did not get them cleaned.

Everyone else have a GREAT DAY!!!!!

I'M A BIT ANNOYED WITH MY SON. I SIMPLY DREAD IT WHEN HIM AND DEANNA FLY. BUT TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE GOING ON VACATION THIS YEAR AND IF YOU ARE THE LUCKY WINNER I WILL GIVE YOU A START OF JILTED.

JILTED

Amy if you would like a start of this for your 2nd prize let me know. If you win this I have others. :O) :O) JLMK.

I HOPE EVERYONE IS HAVING A GREAT MEMORIAL WEEK-END!

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Hi Ladies,

Sorry to be away so long....things have been crazy and hectic trying to finish out the school year and all the other tasks life brings. I am having a lazy weekend and loving it...getting caught up on things. I will be able to ready through all the posts too. The good news I got this week is that I am staying at my school and switching to Kindergarten! I'm very excited. Looks like you all have been having a good swap. I will catch up on the posts and stop back in later.

Theresa

Good Morning Ladies,

This is the first year in 12 years that I'm home for memorial day and I have gotten a ton of yard work done, went to a great cook out and just relaxed.

Annie, your irises are all beautiful!

The card for Larry should be mailed to me, I'm making a board with my posting to the garden web and putting the cards from everyone around the posting. I'll present it to him when I have gotten all the cards from around the world.

He has no idea I'm doing this, he just told me to dig anything that I want! I can't fit hardly any of them here so I offered them to everyone on the garden web and I'm hoping it will make him happy.

I don't have the "logo" for petal pushers, could someone please post for June? I think "a day at the beach" would be a good theme for the month.

Lisa

Lisa, you mean you are not going to take a guess of where Shelby and Dee are going on vacation this year? LOL!!!

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Happy Memorial Day, Ladies

Theresa-So happy for you with your job. What did your son say when he found out you would be at his school again next year?

Lisa-I will send the card & money for Larry's iris when I mail your box which I am hoping to get in the mail tomorrow if other things in life don't get in the way!

Annie-Your iris are beautiful & I love the one you are giving for a prize. For the guesses-in the US I say California-flying International I guess England.

To all have a wonderful week & remember our Vets & their families. GOD BLESS AMERICA

Blessings, Margaret

Margaret, I love you graphics, and like galium,Sassy D and others you guys always come up with some very nice unique ones.

SASSY D AND ANITA ARE YOUR EARS RINGING! I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU!!!! BUT NO WORRIES IT IS ALL GOOD!

Nope Shelby is not flying overseas, and will not be staying anywhere in the states.

Lisa, you can just right click and copy, then store it on your desktop so it is easy to find and then upload it at photobucket or whichever online photo storage you use. I do hope hope this make sense.

I've got to look up some hints for where Shelby and DeeAnna are going.
Be Back in a few with a clue!

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

The first settlements, dating from about 2400 B.C.

Hi everyone!
I'm back in town now, it's good to be home. I have to get caught up on all the posts but I am going to work out in the garden first! Hope you're all having a great weekend and I will talk to you soon!

Amy

Congratulations with the kindergarten class. I always thought If I were to teach that would be my choice...maybe

Amy, glad to see you made it home safe and sound.

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Hi, Ladies-A rainy day here & unable to get plants dug so, Lisa hope I can get your box mailed tomorrow.

Annie-Are you getting all this rain, too or is it stopping at the Illinois border?

Nice to have you back, Amy. Did things go well on your time away?

Theresa-Glad things are settling down for you & know you will have a great time with those Kindergarten children.

Vic-All better now? Sure hope so. Any plans with Zack for the summer? It takes so little to make them happpy it seems or is he still giving you a hard time?

Have a good evening, all. Blessings, Margaret

Annie,

is Shelby going to Canada?

Lisa

Annie-Beautiful irises. Amethyst Dancer and Different World will have to go on my want list. LOL

Lisa-Glad the irises arrived. Thanks for sending one of Larry's irises. Should I send a card or do you have NC covered?

Theresa-Congratulations on getting to stay with your same school. Dawson will be attending Kindergarten this Fall. I can't believe he is ready for school so soon.

Lisa-You probably have it right....I will guess if you don't get it.

Shirley

Hi all!

Hope everyone enjoyed the holiday weekend. Was beautiful here and got lots done in the yard on Friday and Saturday. Had to just relax on Sunday as I pay for overdoing in back pain. Memorial Day couldn't have been prettier and I had the opportunity to once again speak at services. As our county veteran's advocate, I am always honored to be able to pay tribute to those who served in the military.

Annie, all your irises are so pretty! Are Queen Dorothy and Feedback as blue as they look in your pics? I have Immortality blooming and the scent is soooooooo good! Are Shelby and DeAnna going to B*****? Want to give some others a chance to guess. ;)

Theresa, that is SUPER news! I think Kindergarten would be a wonderful group to teach...so full of curiosity and wonder. Congrats!

Amy, a belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Hope you had a great weekend and enjoyed your special day with lots of spoiling. :)

Margaret, the clouds were here in NW Iowa but they must have waited till they got further east to spill in your area. Hope you have a sunshiney remainder of the week!

Lisa, I am amazed at your endeavor with Larry's irises. I am sure he will be so pleased and surprised to know they've been shared nationwide. You are special!

*waving to Vic* Hope you are better and things are settling down for you a bit.

have a great night all.

hugsssssssss,
Dee

Hi everyone!
I meant to get caught up on the posts tonight and post a longer message, but the time got away from me and I'm ready for bed! I will write more tomorrow!!

I just wanted to post quick to let you know that I sent Margaret her box today!! DC #0309 0330 0000 6174 2792

Hope you like it Margaret!
Amy

Ok I am guessing:
They are going to: Belize.

Annie those irises are knockouts! Feedback and Queen Dorothy are WOW. LOL.

Hello everyone, how is everyone getting along? I have been reading the post just haven't had much time to post. I am not feeling to great at the moment so I thought I would come check out the post while I am waiting to feel better. Hope that happens soon.

Well I am off to read a few more post then trying to go to bed.

Night all,
Fran

No, everyone guess again! Thanks for the compliments on my iris!

Dee, yes Queen Dorothy and Feed back are very blue.

Shirley, I like Amethyst Dancer too, well heck I like them all! I will remember you are looking for both of them :O) :O)

It is getting late, and time for bed. I will search for another clue.

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

sugar cultivation

Antigua?

Lisa I will get the iris out to you when they are done blooming, so it will be a couple of weeks yet. BTW, I will also send a card for Larry when I send the iris or will this be too late? If so, let me know and I will get it out to you sooner.

I will have to think of another game. :O) :O) I've got plenty of other iris to give as prizes. We got a nice rain storm and it has knocked some of the taller ones down.

I will be back with another game.

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Hi everyone,
I am finally caught up on the posts (I wish I could say the same for my housework!! lol)

Annie, your irises are just gorgeous!! I am looking forward to receiving some!! I know the first is "Hi" (yeah!!) but was I supposed to choose the second? Shoot, let me know. Oh, and my guess if Brazil.

Lisa, I think that what you are doing for Larry is super cool! I can't wait to see his iris that I planted in my garden bloom next year!!

Thanks for the b-day wishes Dee, most of it was spent in the car, but it was still good. :-)

Ok, I better get to work now. I am so tired today, it's hard to focus!

Have a great day everyone!!
Amy

Amy, yes, you can choose your choice and of the ones pictured above I do have extra of

Jilted
Different World
Avenelle

and I know for sure I do have extra of following, I've just not got out to get a picture of them yet. I will have others, these are some that I know I have plenty of.

Gay Parasol
Jean Marie
Superstition
Thornbird

Just remember, I will dig after bloom time in latter part of June. But trust me I will not forget because I will keep posting who I need to send to for prizes.

Wendy, Fran, Dee, Your plants will come in spurts as they get done blooming. Example Iris first, Daylily second, and so on. The hosta will probably be the last. I want to make very sure that they do not have any virus before sending.

Ok, I've got to think of another game.

LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

NO ON "JEAN MARIE"

Yes, on "Hawaiian Surf"

Here is a link that might be useful: http://daylilyhavenirisgardens.com/irises/tall_bearded_iris_E-H.htm

Good Morning again,

I see that I won again!

Annie, please throw the names of the may swappers in a bowl and pick one and send the prize to them. I just love to play, I don't mind sharing the prizes!

Annie and Shirley, I'll get the iris out to you both next week and will include a card and stamp so that you can write a note to Larry.

Margaret, I'm patient... no worries!

Vic, Thank you for offering Wyoming, I sent you an email.

I'm doing the iris giveaway to please Larry, I really hope that he's happy with what I've done.

Lisa

Annie,

I just had a thought...that could be dangerous! lol

Would you mind mailing the iris to Tracy, I know she's going through a rough time and maybe it would make her smile for a moment.

Lisa

Lisa

Lisa, that is ok, I will send it to you. At the end of this swap I will put everyone's name in and send them 3-4 named iris.

Here are a few pictures I took today

HOSTA DEEP BLUE SEA
I know it looks like it has the hosta virus, but it the spots are raindrops

HOSTA SILK KIMONO

TALL BEARDED IRIS PINK VANILLIA

TALL BEARDED IRIS LOVE THE SUN

I think I have figured out how come some of my pictures are blurry, maybe I'm to close when taking the picture. LOVE THE SUN, did not take a beating with the rain yesterday/last night but the other behind/beside it did, and that one is another that I have lost a tag over the winter. UGH!

VIC, did you get my e-mail.........I OWE YOU BIG TIME!!!!

Annie, Oooohhh...I get to choose? This is hard. I'm not sure exactly what to pick but I would love something in blue.

You're awesome....all of you!!

Amy, Hawaiian Surf is a pretty blue, If you change your mind let me know. I don't have enough of the Feedback to share, maybe next year.

Margaret, your Brunnea and Ginger will be mailed out to you tomorrow or Saturday morning. I dug you some ginger yesterday, and will dig dome Brunnea today.

I've got to take my client to Weight Watchers this morning, and I really need to join myself. but............ While I'm waiting for him to get done I will go pick up some black oil and Thistle seed for the birds. I know, they get plenty to eat in the summer but I enjoy watching them feed.

Be back later, I'm still thinking of another game.
LIFE IS GOOD,
Annie

Is anyone else having this problem?

Hey everyone, How is everybody?

I was having issue posting earlier I think GW was updating or something.

Annie, I might have a reason why your pics are blurry sometimes. It is the same problem I have had a few times too because I am IMPATIENT. When you center the bloom you click it before the camera has a chance to focus on the bloom, instead of clicking when u have it centered give it a couple secs for the camera to focus as well and your pics will come out better.
At least I have noticed that is what I have been doing on the close ups, my camera is a Kodak m1063 model and has a close up feature and when I use it I can be very close to the object I want to capture BUT I have clicked the pic before the camera was focused on the plant/blooms and the pic was blurry so that is why I am thinking you are doing the same thing.

That link you posted above is that where u order from by chance?

:) Fran

HI Every1 Busy Busy Time right now in the gardens & with my critters :) Hope evryone is haven a great time in their Gardens :)

Morning Ladies!

Annie and Shirley, I mailed your Larry's iris' out yesterday, the dc# is posted in the Larry's iris thread. I put a note card with a stamp on it for Larry in both of your envelopes.

Please send it back to me asap, I think he's moving the second week in June and I need to get his poster board to him before that.

It's been raining for three days here..sigh!

I'm going back to work after 12 weeks off and really wanted to get a few last minute things done.

Lisa

Good Morning-Ladies

I received my great box from Amy-Z yesterday with the following plants: Strawberry "Lipstick",Blackeyed Susan, Sedum, Salvia, "purple", my favorite color, a perennial fern, swedish ivy, (a house plant) & chives.
Also this long list of seeds: marigolds,garlic chives, chinese lanterns, datura, hosta, zinnias, red sunflower, red caster bean, 4 o'clocks, pkg of mixed flowers, "Heralds of Spring & pkg of Old Fashioned Mixture.

Thank you so much, Amy. You did a great job of packing the plants & gave me some insight of packing mine when I send. Now if the ground isn't too soaked I will get them planted today.
I am looking forward to planting the seeds, also. The weather has been so damp & cool here I know they will do well when it warms up. I love to plant seeds in the Spring. It is such a miracle what comes from those tiny seeds. Just shows how great God is!

Have a wonderful weekend with lots of weeding, planting, & enjoying. Such a great group here! I think this saying says so much about us!

Old Gardeners never die. They just spade away then throw in the trowel..........H.V. Prochnow, Sr.

Blessings, Margaret

Good Morning Everyone! I thought I would take a moment this morning and check in to see how all of you lovely ladies are doing and to say hi. I love all of the beautiful pictures of your blooms. The iris are stunning and the hostas are looking lush! Kimono is one of my favorite Miss Annie! Tell Shelby and Deanne to take care of themselves while they are on their amazing vacation. I will be keeping them in my prayers that they have a safe and wonderful trip.

Lisa, I hope you got my note that I sent. I can't believe you didn't go camping last weekend. It sounds like your memorial weekend was a lot like mine. We put in 3 yards of mulch in all the beds and got tons of yard work done. The Tracy's Treasure Phlox is nearly as high as my hip now. I can't wait to see it bloom! Thank you again for sending it.

Margaret, that sounds like a lovely box that you received from Amy. I hope you are doing well. Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers.

Fran, I see you are still ever the night owl. Still up haunting the boards all night. LOL. I don't stay up nearly as late as I used to. I'm all tuckered out and becoming more of an early bird these days.

Miss Vic, how are you doing, Sweetie? And that little blondie boy? Is he getting big? Growing like a weed? I bet Zach is adorable and getting into all kinds of mischief out there. I'm waiting for you to swing by with your tent :o) (((HUGS)))

Things are starting to shift back to life as normal around here. The little kids are all doing great. School will be out on the 4th and vacation can begin! YAY! Hubby is finishing relaying our patio after we pulled it up last year to run plumbing to one of the outbuildings. The shade garden is as full as ever and the lasagna bed is budding with bunches of blooms. Hopefully they will open this weekend and I can get some pics posted. I put in one new small bed this spring and filled it with heuchera and pulmonaria along with some hosta minis. I will be heading off now, have to hit the stores and get back to start cooking. We are having the family over tomorrow for my 7 year old's First Communion Party. I will try to check back a little later or maybe on Sunday if it gets too busy.

Hugs everyone!
Tracy

Good Morning,Ladies

Boy, am I glad the forum's are up & working. I was just about to have the shakes from needing to see what was going on.

Tracy-I wish I could tell you how nice it is to have you posting again. Praying your summer is filled with lots of joy, planting weeding & gardening. I have heard of the lasagna beds but never did one yet. Maybe will look into that next. I am lookint forward to the pictures you are sending. I get lazy sometimes about doing what needs to be done outside, the pictures posted inspire me to get busy again!

Lisa-I finally got your box in the mail this morning. The post office lady told me that the mail keeps moving on the weekends so went ahead with it.
Confirmation #0307 0020 0002 5209 3656. Hope you enjoy the things I sent!

It is a beautiful day here & lots to do so have a great weekend, all. Almost the 1st of June-seems impossible, doesn't it?

Blessings, Margaret

Howdy all! How is everyone? I have been busy as all get out today (well is WAS today when I started this post which was SATURDAY lol) I worked so much outside I ache all over, wow this getting older is for the birds.
I have been potting up plants that I got from my mom yesterday WOW, I didn't realize I had THAT many! The SO actually helped with potting them up today too, we still have a lot more to do whew!

TRACY HEY GIRL....MISS YOU MUCH, hope you will be able to come around more often. Just isn't the same without you girl! Glad things are returning to normal for you.

Hope everyone has a great weekend, mine so far has been very busy!

:) Fran

Good Mroning,

I got an incredible box from Margaret yesterday. I have to get ready for work and will post the contents later on today. Thank you Margaret!!!

Lisa

Susie-I have not mailed your box as of yet. I planned on getting it together this afternoon but came home to a huge box from Bluestone Perennials. Everything was so dry I had to get them planted in containers. I do hope to try again tomorrow and mail on Thursday. Will let you know for sure.

I want to apologize to Robin for not posting the wonderful box she sent me for the Petal Pushers Spring Fling Swap. She e-mailed me and asked me did I not receive it and I really could not remember (scary). I am in 3 group swaps monthly so I'm blaming it on that. LOL

Robin-I did find the list I made and have all the goodies listed that you sent. When you mentioned the hummingbird feeder I knew that I did get the box.

Robin sent me all these things:
Tricyrtis-Always on my want list
Cannas-Rosemond Cole
Hummingbird Feeder-DH wanted to hang it right away
Sedum
Hosta
Purple Phlox
Pink Christmas Cactus-One of my favorite colors
Iris-Never enough irises
Plaque that says Welcome to the Garden-Just beautiful
Post-it-Notes-With my memory getting bad I really need these
Bath Crystals-To pamper myself

I know we are in the May Swap but I did want everyone to know what a great box I received from Robin last month. I will go and stand in the corner now Robin.

Lisa-I received Larry's iris today and will mail back the card tomorrow. How nice of you to stamp it. Your name really suits you-ishareflowers. LOL

Shirley

3 no id hosta, one has the tiniest little leaves, so cute!
2 daylilies, one yellow and one maroon

Hi all!

I am back from California and still recovering from the week away. I wanted to post on the proper thread that I received a package from Wendy while I was away. My daughter took care of the plants until I got home. :)

Wendy sent me some hostas that are new to me. I got Lakeside Little Gem, Praying Hands and Red October! She also sent a really cute garden ornament that has a bright sun on one side and a pretty crescent moon and stars on the other, a beautiful basket with sides made from tree bark, some cute little note cards and an adorable little gnome pulling a work cart! I hope I haven't forgotten anything. Thank you so much, Wendy...everything is perfect!

Wendy also wanted me to let you all know that she is without internet and phone at the moment and to top it off she has been having van trouble again. She is not sure when she will be back online but they are doing okay and she will be back when she can. (((Wendy)))

Annie, I received a package from you today. Thank you so much for the irises!!! It's been raining all day but I will get them planted in the a.m. before work. :)

Lisa, I haven't forgotten your prize and hope to get it on the way later this week.

will post more later when I catch up on a bit of sleep...
hugsssssssss,
Dee

Hi all!
Annie, I just wanted to let you know that I received your irises yesterday. Thank you so much, I can't wait to see them blooming next spring!!!!

This was a fun swap, thanks for hosting Annie!

Amy
