What's blooming?

[F, Calla & Luca]

Things are really popping in the garden right now. So much foliage and so many flowers.

I have had azaleas, which are now fading:

and then there are the rhododendrons just getting going:

The weigela:

and there are columbines:

I have roses just starting and clematis too. So lets keep this thread going. What's blooming in your garden?

[F, Calla & Luca]

I prefer the regular peonies to the tree peonies. You need to plant them at the right depth and after that they can outlive you.

My absolute favorite flower but I can't grow them here.....insert REALLY sad face.  Beautiful, only wish the smell came through, too.

Next edition of DK. I just hope we can turn the smell off for the poop discussions : )

[Linda, Charlie Brown and Beau]

Love your photos F - all so wonderful.  I do not have a weigela - it is so beautiful I think I need to get one!

[F, Calla & Luca]

Thanks, Weigelas are truly easy to care for. I think this is Wine and Rose. It is in the logo for this group.

Some more. at this time of year so many things are blooming I can't keep track of them.

Hardy geraniums have started:

Siberian Iris

Purple Iris

Clematis Ramona

Wisteria Amethyst Falls

Do you think I like purple flowers? I also have others, the roses are just starting:

And some of you may remember the weird Rhubarb flower, which I look forward to following.

[Janie, Jackson and Jilly]

All gorgeous! The rhubarb looks interesting, could we follow it with you?!

[F, Calla & Luca]

Of course. I did write about it last year. Truly an amazing, not necessarily beautiful, flower.

I love your irises! 

[F, Calla & Luca]

Me too. I once had so many Siberian irises I ripped them out but now some that I tucked here and there are thriving.

Well, I stink at taking photos, but I do have some things growing in my garden.  I so want to get into the photography group and learn, but I just can't seem to find the time to keep up.  Plus it would mean a new camera I'm sure.  I so admire those of you who are following Camilla though and I'm enjoying your photos.  But, thought I'd share a little of my garden with you.  Doesn't compare to many, but it is still a work in progress.  We have just been here a few years and it was pretty much a blank slate to start.

My lilac tree just finished blooming.  I missed the weeping cherry this year while we were in FL.

My Daylillies are just starting to bloom today.

My Wegeila is so full of blooms it is about to break branches.

I can't remember what this is called, but it is blooming!

The name escapes me again!

Pink knock out roses ... I have red ones as well.

More pink knock outs.  I have a lot of knockouts.  Love them because they bloom full all summer and are no maintenance.

All pretty. I think your no names are Dianthus and Salvia. Pleas do join the PG, all skill levels are welcome. These photos are fine. Especially that last Weigela.
