Well, actually these are photos taken over the past two weeks. I have been so busy with the planting and yard work that I haven’t had time to post. I still have so many plants just waiting to be planted.. The photo at left is a Showy Orchis (Orchis spectabilis), a very pretty little wild orchid that grows here and there throughout the woods surrounding the yard. I did stop with my planting long enough to take a walk in the woods to get some photos of it. And, below are a few of the latest blooms in my gardens, these were taken over the past couple of weeks. As always, click any photo to view it larger.

Flame Azalea
It seems I post photos of these native shrubs every year when they’re in bloom. They are so pretty this year though, I just had to post them again. There are many of these that grow wild in the woods, this particular one is in our back yard and is about 15 feet tall and it is absolutely gorgeous this year!

I have spent the last two weeks working in my yard, cleaning up flower beds, transplanting and dividing and planting. Here are a few of the blooms I have around the place, photos taken over the last couple of weeks.

I’m using a new slideshow feature here at WordPress. Mouseover the photos for the controls to appear. It works fine on my Firefox browser and I’m hoping it does for others as well. If you have problems with it or if it lags the blog’s loading time, please let me know.
