I would be heartbroken if I couldn't grow flowers in my yard. Although, I love a good flower shop too! We have a vacation home up in NY state, where the weather zone is a bit colder. I have trouble growing things there but the peonies I planted have just grown into huge bushes every year now. I have 3 different colors, dark red/rose, pink & white. I agree with you, they are gorgeous flowers and I may paint them this year!Nan Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03056726501810316005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064569197002287472.post-84333122087240623852010-03-10T21:26:46.897-05:002010-03-10T21:26:46.897-05:00Thanks Sherry, glad you liked these.

Spring always rejuvenates me, both the flowers & the birds - I look forward to seeing it all again soon.Nan Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03056726501810316005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064569197002287472.post-68188949133949173412010-03-10T17:59:56.655-05:002010-03-10T17:59:56.655-05:00I love tulips (and the other bulbs you mentioned) ...I love tulips (and the other bulbs you mentioned) but we don't get to see them here except in flower shops or sometimes in very dedicated gardener's yard. You depicted them beautifully. I love the variety of greens in the leaves.<br />Another flower I wish grew here is the peony. Do those grow where you live?Nancy Goldmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08957674798737272474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064569197002287472.post-69748359572363043822010-03-10T15:12:28.473-05:002010-03-10T15:12:28.473-05:00What gorgeous tulips!!

Just realized not too long ago that it wasn't too. Still, a favorite color combo of mine anyway. I am now longing to smell hyacinths! So glad to know that little bird wasn't neglected even after having had to be handled to get back in the nest. Also glad the wee bairn was ok!Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.com
