@twin that is a beautiful plant! Remember seeing it and gawking when I saw it my first time in college. Japanese maple? I think?

Thanks,
I can’t take any credit. They were here when I bought the place. There aren’t that many and they don’t bloom for long. But they sure put on a show when they do.

Together with some friends I took out about 20 tree stumps over the werkend from my cottages grounds.

@SFMCfranky My first iris of the year flowered yesterday:

Yours reminds me of an amazing collection I saw at Sissinghurst a couple of years ago.

We had a couple appear yesterday....I'm very pleased, we split them hard last year and moved a lot to new locations, and they are all doing well....

Beauties! Are they lilies?
I find they somewhat resemble orchids. 3 sepals, 3 petals, the lower petal is a highly modified petal. Anyone think so too? Or am I imagining things?

@SFMCfranky Nice! What a pure yellow. Is this a flag? Since we’re on the subject, the latest to flower:

@Mister_Brue

What a beautiful purple!
I’m not sure what the variety of these yellow ones are. A friend planted them next to my pool decades ago and they’ve thrived there ever since.

@goosehd Spring has sprung. I have a Star Magnolia in the garden, but it didn’t look as good as yours.
