Blooms Galore in Kentucky

Blooms in our yard are opening and they are beautiful. My day lilies are just starting to show their glorious color.

Shasta Daisies are standing tall and sure look perky. A little toad is keeping an eye on them. 

Butterfly Weed is blooming. I didn't even remember planting this one. Glad I didn't pull it up thinking is was just another weed in the garden. It is supposed to bloom all summer. I'll share its progression.

My Coreopsis has returned with its profuse blooms. I had several new plants come up so I moved the clumps to different spots and even put one in a pot with some marigolds.

I planted a yellow canna lily in a pot and added asparagus fern and red petunias. Canna like lots of heat so I have this pot in direct sun. 

I planted lots of Zinnias this spring; some from seeds and some potted. The potted ones are blooming with orange and red flowers. 

The yellow flowers in the pot are calibrachoa.

There is so much to be thankful for each day - my gardens, colorful blooms, and warm sunny days.

Thanks for stopping by - Judy.

Flowers and Blooms - a gardener's delight

Today I am sharing the flowers and blooms in my front flower beds. Here's a view from the road looking at my azalea blooms with my house in the background.

Although this area isn't huge, it is packed with color and texture from late March to late Spring. 

In early spring, the trees in my yard and the daffodils were in bloom.

Then the Irises started to bloom ...

and the dogwoods bloomed. 

The wagelia buds opened to gorgeous flowers.

 The rose buds opened.

My favorites, the azaleas were covered in buds and I couldn't wait for them to open.

The white azalea below is new in the bed. It will need time to grow. 

Although not in my garden, the magnolia trees by the driveway are now in bloom and the aroma is just so sweet.  

Thanks for stopping in to see my flowers and blooms.  Another day of Life in Kentucky - Judy.
