April Bloom Day: Addendum

When I posted my bloom day photos on April 15, there were a few more blooms that were not quite ready for the paparazzi – but as soon as the pressure was off they came out in full red carpet dress.  I snuck out and snapped a few shots of the new blooms and I’m posting them up because they are so magnificent I just had to share.  What a difference 4 days can make! 

As always, hover over the photos to see the names and click the thumbnail for a larger version.

    Um, I should admit that I bought the painted orange tulips on Sunday – 12 tulips didn’t just pop up today. But who could resist – aren’t they fab?!

    Those orange tulips sizzle! Nice shots. I like the way you collage your work!

    You have the nicest flowers and always take great pictures. I quite enjoy these posts.

    Thank you two. I do wish I had a bit more knowledge of what the flowers are called moreso than just “white blue iris”…but all in time.

    Thanks for commenting on my espaliers – you will really enjoy yours. Your flower closeups are beautiful. The one on the top right is the Lilac “Sensation” – the most photogenic of all the lilacs. I hope it’s fragrant also.

    Hi Stevie, I’m loving my Parrot tulip too. My lilacs are blooming and I enjoy them but they’re nothing like yours! Fabulous.

    Wow great photos and beautiful garden! Do you plant from seeds?

    Hi Pricilla, no, most of what is in my front garden is perennials. But I start all my veggies from seed each year.

    You really do take the most amazing photos! I hope I have beautiful things like that in my garden one day :-D
