New Faces in my Garden

 Monday brought out these new faces to smile at me.

First iris blooms.

Many more to open.

Funny thing about these irises, I have no recollection of where they came from.  They may have been here but in a different location and I moved them without knowing their color.  They are lovely.  More irises to open up soon including a white one from blogger Vicki.


This is a new flower for me and for this season according to the garden center where I purchased this.  Tag below. I planted it on Mother's Day and it had that bud.  It took this long to open.


Not sure why these wave petunias are speckled unless it was the spray from my insect repellant.  Black flies are bad this year.


Chive blossoms are always lovely.


I know these little flowers as million bells.


These volunteers just keeping coming up here despite the weeding. Name escaping me at present.  I have other clumps that have yet to bloom.


This is the first year for my lupine to bloom.  I think there's a white flower coming too.


And I planted dahlias last week and this one has broken through the ground already.  They love this soil.

  1. ...I wish that I had bearded iris in our garden. Chives can be lovely, but they will take over a garden.

  2. Such a lovely pale iris. Thanks for sharing your garden. I've had a petunia go from deep purple to pale blue - who knows what they're up to!

  4. I have one iris blooming and it is yellow with lots more to come.
    That plant you can't get rid of is spider wort and it is a bad plant. I have it and it has gone everywhere and just when I think I have it control out it goes again.
