Very pretty !!! What are the pink ones in the last picture??
I love flowers... I planted bulbs last fall that are coming up nicely now. And I am super happy I have buds on my tiny little lilac bushes. I have waited 30 yrs to have lilac again. :-) But if I see one more pansy......... it seems that is all anyone has around here winter and spring. I want different stuff. I planted some lily of the valley and iris and something else with fuzzy pink flowers, And I am looking at ordering some things from a catalog that arent normally seen in this neighborhood. I have a good bit of shade and some afternoon sun where I can plant so its a hunt to find what will grow.

We have had both Christmas and Easter cactus. They are so pretty. We have populated the neighborhood with them!

Yes, my Christmas cactus is booming for the 3rd time since last Oct and it is an inside plant. Love the beautiful white Iris. White is such a pure color. I had one that was called Fire and Ice. Pure white with orange beard. Here in Idaho nothing in bloom but the daffodils and tulips are coming up. We are 4500ft above sea level.

It's the same in PA. NEVER before have we had "spring" flowers so early! All the trees are in bloom too. Very strange for PA.
