Hello everyone,
With the sunshine the last couple of days the garden is changing daily so I have been snapping close up shots of some of the beauty that has been bursting forth.
These shots were taken a few days ago .I made collages so you could see them all at a glance or two.
Some of the french lilacs are still putting on a good show while others are starting to show their age.
We have a few honeysuckle vines blooming now and they have such a wonderful fragrance.I love to plant them in places where we walk by a lot so we can really enjoy them.
The cutest little scooters ever!!! Noah and Lila -our daughters little ones.
I was away for a couple of days and the first thing I had to do was take a walk around the garden to see the changes and snap a few more pics. Some of our roses have started to bloom- you were probably getting sick of my lilacs pics anyway!
Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn
NO WAY WERE GETTING SICK of your lilac pics- not a chance, lady!
ReplyDeleteThese are extraordinary though- such abundant and gorgeous colour- and those grandlittles, oh do they get any cuter?????
Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour collages are such luscious bursts of colour. However, they may be outshone by those two little faces. As for getting tired of lilacs, is that possible? Have a wonderful evening.

Hello Carolyn:
ReplyDeleteYour collages of some of your garden plants in flower at the moment really are most attractive and the images, we think, have been arranged with such care and an eye to detail. Perfect.
And the pictures of the children are simply lovely.
Carolyn: Who is the ??? that gets sick of lilacs?? Never. But a real joy to see all the other beautiful blooms also..Happy Wednesday..Judy
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and lovely children. I am admiring all your photographs! They are beautiful! Your blog is beautiful! I am greeting! Aga Melnik from Poland
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flower shots! Love the collections and would be really happy if you could "tell" me how you call the flower in the first collection right beside the honeysuckle (the one with the "fancy hair")?
ReplyDeleteMany thanks in advance for your help & lots of love spreaded from my GoldenFairyCottage,
Petra
Children are the most beautiful flowers in the garden! ;)

Hi Petra,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit. The plant you asked about is a Thalictrum Aquilegiiflium or meadow rue.It is an easy care plant that blooms early.
Enjoy your day!
Carolyn
Hi Carolyn! Your flowers are BREATHtaking...and what a great way to showcase all the variety of blooms, in a collage! Loved it! My favorites are the peony and lilac. They are stunning and the prettiest little ladies in the garden. ;)
ReplyDeleteMore than the flowers though, are the prettiest of all are your grandies. They are just PRECIOUS! You are BLESSED!

Hi Carolyn. Nope. Not getting sick of the lilac pictures. As a matter of fact, if you posted only lilac pictures for the rest of the year, it would be fine with me cuz I love your photos.
ReplyDeleteThe grandchildren posted, as well as ALL your grandchildren, are very, very adorable and precious. Susan
How ever do people manage not to take photo records of new blooms in the garden? The only thing better is video with the background bird song and fountain burbles. You have a wonderful eye for capturing blossom beauty and children's charm as well.
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely flowers, the tree paeony is gorgeous. I wish we had some of your sunshine here.
ReplyDeleteI still love looking at the lilacs. Your pale pink ones are gorgeous! Cute little ones in your garden too. Hope you're having a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sandi
oh, how kids always photograph well....and so do flowers....
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful!
I'd never get tired of looking at your beautiful gardens and flowers! Or your sweet grandkids for that matter. I hope your day is special. Pamela
ReplyDeleteYour header is very beautiful...
ReplyDeleteJust like your little ones...
Blessings Lori ~
Carolyn! Cutey petoodies for sure! I never tire of seeing any of your photos posted!
