After back to back weeks of torrential rain,
a cloudless sky was warmly welcomed.
Early May is the beginning of some of the best blooming in the River Birch planting area!

a feature in the backyard-
a dark blue Siberian Iris
but, CG's favored nod goes to the Louisiana
also in the backyard,
a variety of perennial ferns have been introduced to the burning bush bed
moving a few BPs to the bog bed is also an option
the variety of bearded iris has increased in numbers over last year
BPs are hardy, durable, colorful wonders.
Need hundreds more of them!
