I'm calling you on that one!

You're such a liar!!

Anyways, no more guessing games - just posting pics now:

Here's a very lovely picture a the ground cover (a type a sedum - got like 5 dif'rent varieties) that's spread out real nicely along the driveway. Photowas taken 7(!!) days ago.


*GASP*

You have got some nerve calling me a liar!!

Took some more photos this evenin cause it appears the vaious daisies in my yard are about ta bloom. (specially the new (from last fall) yellow daisy-like plant)

This unusual 'painted daisy' (don't know the real name - will check it out tomorrow) I bought a couple a years ago - it's not multiplying much, but it's back for it's 3rd showing - from the main flower bed

This peonie is much darker in the eye's view (as opposed to the camera's). Last week we found a tag at the bottom of the plant naming it 'Catherine Woodburn' - thanks, Bill

These started bloomin 2 days ago, took this photo (and 2 more) yesterday, and already they're a bit outdated cause there are more blooms ev'ryday.

Int'resting bit ... plant was originally 11$, marked down to 7$ when I bought it. Seperated em into 4 plants in order to use em as boder and it looks like I bought 4 plants there are Sooo many blooms coming  ;D You're just seeing half the border in the picture!

Cause a the rain drops on the leaves? I wattered the garden just before taking the pictures - guess I got lucky on that score.

Here's a wider view of the same Maysville daisies, taken on the same day (two days ago now!)
