Fuzzy flowers popping open on dark red leaves. Not quite sure what these little cuties are?… but I’m totally diggin’ their candy-striped showiness before they pop open to a fuzzy flower sphere!

More colorful flag iris blooming today…
these little guys don’t seem to mind the chilly breeze?!

Another “yellow” for my Friday Yellow Trifecta! Some beautiful yellow orchids growing in their favorite stamped flower pot… apparently loving their home from the way that flowers & plant look so healthy! Thanks for sharing your beautiful orchid Gerry & Rosene!

Another beauty blooming in my garden. I sure do LOVE iris season. The colors, the shapes, the petals… and even the scent. Not everybody likes the way iris smell… but it’s like a childhood flashback memory for me!

Another sweet little flag iris popping up in the garden…
I’m LOVING iris season this year!!!

While the overnight rains have not been so conducive to my morning bike rides, they are working wonders for some of the iris currently blooming in my front yard! I’m totally enamored by these beautiful bi-color irises… the color, the texture, the structure!!!

Colorful coleus on my back porch at home… plenty of textures & ruffled edges to celebrate Mother Nature’s TEXTURE TUESDAY. Loving the color contrasts of reds, rusts & chartreuse yellows!

A sweet little Saturday bouquet. A tiny little bud vase filled with fragrant Lily-Of-The-Valley fresh from my garden. Stamped & soda-fired… ready to brighten your day!

Not as colorful as their fellow windowsill orchids, but these sweet dendrobium orchids are finally re-blooming too! Not to be outdone by their showier phalaneopsis friends! Again, green thumb “neglect” with a stamped & soda-fired flowerpot seems to be the secret!

One of the coolest Spring flowers ever…
these fun purple “spheres” of allium stand on tall stems.
Gently swaying in the breeze!
