Thanks for looking everyone and all the nice comments. It took me six years to put all this in. The hardscape and the vegatation. I have a seriously ill tree in the front yard I might have to remove. It is left to be seen if it will leaf out the rest of the way. :( The dang thing split into two last fall so hubby drilled holes through it and braced it up with bolts. (A landscape pro told hm to try it.)

It always is something out there. Hubby is putting in a drip system for me this weekend. There is mud and mess everywhere. :evil: Dang it!! That is why I couldn't show it more pics.

The white and purple little flowers in the pot is verbenia. The other one is a iris. Not sure which one you meant, Ruth.

Thanks again girls. I am glad you enjoyed them.

:D I really don't get alot of sewing / quilting done in the gardening season until it gets hot, then I hide out in the house. LoL!

Thanks little hud ... many of my spring flowers are pink, purple and white.
