Roses! Lots of roses!

The irises turned out very nice! I like the one bunch in front of the yucca by the driveway.
The yuccas have spear-like buds that will bloom soon.

There are tiny green tomatoes in our vegetable garden now! I think we have 3 right now.
These are the radishes.
The vegetable garden is coming along nicely.
These are some kind of purple thingys...

Joe's grandma Madonna sent home some daisy starters for me to plant, so I put them next to these purple thingys.
He also picked some and put them in the kitchen for me!
A red bud on the rose bush! Now I know I have red roses in the circular areas in the backyard.






There were some tulip bulbs that were planted between these two hastas and they didn't bloom this year. I think the frost and some dead leaves stifled them. I dug them out and planted 8 anemone bulbs in the space. They should bloom 3-5 weeks from now.


My friend Barb gave me about 50 ferns and I transplanted them in between the lillies and then on the side of the house that faces the neighboring house. These ferns have been in her family for gernerations and we figured they could be almost 100 years old! Her grandfather had them for a long time, then gave them to her mother when she bought her first home, then her mother gave her these when Barb moved into her first home. Barb's mother is in her 80s! Now I have heirloom ferns at my first home!
To the left of our sidewalk and the right of our garage in that tiny 2x1 space I planted 8 freesias. They will bloom in 3-5 weeks.
