The flowers have bloomed!

After the continuous days of rain and scorching hot days, the flowers have finally bloomed around our house. Check out some pictures. No pictures of the Eureka yet as it has not bloomed ... I'll post pictures when it does. I included a bit of history about the roses we purchased at Great Lakes Nursery here.


The first peony bushes from Nashville have bloomed! Beautiful, aye? They are four - five inches wide!


Our William Baffin producing beautiful blooms.


One of our two Polaris rose bushes producing awesome white blooms. They smell great!


Our Souvenir de Mal Maison roses took a beating over the Winter. However, there are still some beautiful intricate light pink blooms.


A bright red Redwood bloom!


One of the mutant purple / yellow irises that mysteriously appeared in our front yard!
