Flowers & Landscape

I love to work in the yard and watch the flowers bloom in the spring. I thought I would take some pictures of the work we've done and some of the flowers that are finally starting to bloom!

Hosta...



Iris...just bloomed this morning! :)





Rhodies....I love these! I tried to grow them last year, but I killed them. I keep my fingers crossed that these live through the summer. The blooms are beautiful!





I moved a bunch of hosta from the front of the house to the back yard. I wanted the rhodies right up front. The big one under the window and 4 smaller purple ones on the other side.



This lilly planter was made the first year we bought the house. I used bricks and I just couldn't keep them from falling. So my dad and I (well, mostly my dad) built this with landscape timbers. It looks so much better than the bricks. Thanks Dad!! :)



I bought a bunch of perannials last year and this was one of them. I don't remember what it is, so if anyone has a clue, let me know!



The flowers from above plant...



Azeala's...They didn't bloom the first year we were here. There was a little pine tree growing right up the middle of it. I removed the tree and it finally bloomed for the first time last year.



More rhodies....





My back yard...work in progress...



Iris planters...



The side yard...
