Spring bulbs!


Going back through my photos I realized that I had forgotten my massive tulips that bloomed this year! When standing beside them, they were up to my thigh!!! Probably more than 2 feet tall!! You can also see the sweet daffodils I planted as well!  Here are some pics- enjoy! 


I bought tulip, hyacinth and narcissus daffodil bulbs from tulipworld.com.  I definitely recommend this site for bulbs AND great prices!  Check it out!

Oh how I love digging in the dirt!

So, I finally have been able to work in my "yard"! I am not finished, but a lot has already been done! So far the hubby and I have planted a hydrangea, knockout rose bush, Gaura, hostas, red mother of thyme, and grace ward lithodora.  Of course some annuals- petunias, mini petunias, begonias, geraniums, lobelia, creeping jenny, and sweet potato vine.

Here's the proof!

This is Gaura, also known as, whirling butterfly. I am in love with this little beauty especially because she's a perennial! 

I'll posts pictures of the back "yard" and the finished product once it's all done or err when I'm happy with it!
