Sunny With a Chance of Showers

Our weatherman said on last nights news we should expect rain most of the day. We had a few good showers earlier today; the sun is peeking through the clouds now so I have titled my post a positive outlook for the day. Sunny, with a Chance of Showers.

I took some photographs on Wednesday and am just getting to posting them to my blog.  My iris are coming in now; the blues and purples are budding but so far no blooms have opened.  I will share the beauty of the peach, salmon and yellow with you for now.

Cistus (rockrose) has been blooming for several weeks, looks beautiful in the butterfly garden.

Of course it wouldn't be my blog if I didn't show off my Madarense Geraniums!

Lavenders on the South Wall

Nutmeg Scented Geranium came up on its own, see it hanging over the wall?

Heartsease

There is a flower I wish to wear,

But not until first worn by you—

Heartsease—of all earth’s flowers most rare;

Bring it; and bring enough for two.
