What pretty flowers, the color of the first hyacinth is amazing. I've never seen one that dark before. I love the row of tulips and phlox.

I love the subtle gradations of colour and the mood of the blue-purple blooms!

Hi Everyone!
The creeping phlox is along one whole side of the banking along the garage. It gets the morning sun so it seems to bloom very well there.
The hyacinths smell great,just wish it would slack off on the rain so I could get out there to be near all that fragrance for awhile.

Go Wednesday for an MRI of my empty head so hopefully everything will check out alright. May just have to put up with the touch of vertigo that yet refuses to leave.

Happy Gardening!
