garden flowers

Post your garden flowers pictures here.

My   irises started  to bloom, they are one of the things the urban deer don't eat.   Have several varieties, each new flower is going to be a surprise.  🙂

Showoff your garden pics here.

Geez, nuthin' like kickin' a guy when he's already down! 🤣  Calgary, the place my uncle likes to say is, "the only place you can slip on the ice, fall down in the mud, and get up and dust yourself off". 😉 😁

It's almost the unofficial kick off to summer here.....

It is about time to see some flowers at my backyard. 

We don't plant annuals outside until after Victoria long weekend because we have snow in April and May + low temperature at night.

Beautiful shots! The cherry blossoms are popping all over the place in Vancouver right now. Vancouver should consider illuminating some of its spectacular blossoms at night as well. The buds popped out on my crabapple tree on the first day of spring but my yellow plum is in full bloom.

Well.  Calgary is still snowing last few days.  Don't even see the brown lawn yet.

My kid is on a 2 year work assignment in Tokyo and she sent this cherry blossoms photo back a couple of days ago.  This location is 15 minutes from her condo in Tokyo.  Almost everyone in this photo are wearing masks.

Yesterday, she decide to took a 2 hours train ride to Kyoto to see more cherry blossoms.  She sent back a few night shots.

@darlicious :Very nice!

My new moto g7+.....its camera is on point! The camera is a deal breaker on a phone for me. With slightly more mp than my dslr camera the close up shots are comparable. These are from 10 years ago......

[TheGx]

@darlicious :Your camera skills on point too, those close up shots very crisp and clear.

@mimmo 

Its that time of year again.....the first of the cherry blossoms are out, the crocuses and daffodils have popped out. Spring is only a few days away.

   When I was a kid living just outside of Pembroke the woods near our house would have the entire forest floor filled with trillums for a couple weeks in spring. It's still a vivid memory fo me.

[Luddite]

Light frost last night but the trillium are determined.

@JoyLuck  Nice your camera skills are on point.....nice use of the f-stop to get crisp a subject matter and a soft background. I can almost taste those chives! They are also excellent at attracting  bees so very beneficial for cross pollinating other nearby fruiting plants. Very common go have them growing next to tomatoes, cucumbers and the summer squash family to achieve maximum fruit yield.

A couple more irises.

@NDesai  it looks promising, nothing better than picking fresh strawberries.

  

  

[krystledawn]

wow they look beautiful! I'm surprised you already have so many full bloom ❤️

[NDesai]

Will I get some Strawberries this year?

[Luddite]

An eager neighbour; around here annuals are at risk until May 24.

From my easy garden in the woods.

More gorgeous blooms....

[darlicious]

The great thing about the west coast is even if you dont have a green thumb theres plenty of  blooms to find around town this time of year.

[yanzhiqiang]

Thanks for sharing, beautiful flowers.

[darlicious]

@Luddite 

No one gets to enjoy them except the growers and their neighbours....youll just have to support them and buy some. Here's an aerial view from the home country two years ago.

[Luddite]

Can't visit the tulip festival this year; nor my grandchildren. 😞

[BearFBI]

@darlicious and @mimmo My god those are beautiful. Were in Sudbury and the ground is still frozen in some areas. We wont be plating flours in weeks. Its still cold here too.

[darlicious]

I love all the bulbs and rhizomes....irises, tulips but my favourite are lillies.

[popping]

Nice flowers. 

My lawns is still brown and don't even have yellow dandelion.  We don't plant our annual flowers outside until after Victoria long weekend which is a few weeks away.
