The Peonies are Coming!

Good morning,

In just a few days the peonies will be in full bloom.
We know it will be soon when we see the ants on the flower buds.
The purple iris are also almost ready to bloom.

The parade of Spring blossoms is amazingly beautiful. 

What is in bloom now where you live?

All the best,
Lois

Lovely! Gotta have those ants or they won't open so I've heard. Nothing blooming for me yet. It was 28 degrees this morning. Sure has been a chilly spring here.

It looks like they are going to be beautiful! Most of my flowers are done blooming except for my shrimp plant. I noticed a hummingbird checking it out the other day!

My irises are growing, but the flowers haven't peeped out yet.

Ooooh so exciting! :-) I LOVE peonies but just can't grow them here no matter how many times I try.

Lois, we are just a little way ahead with Peonies and Iris in full bloom plus masses of purple-blue Alliums popping open everywhere.

The buds are so nice and I love the full blooms later of them. Nothing here to show only from my files still.

So like to enjoy yours.
