I won five plants in a raffle this morning at a Long Island Master Gardeners meeting.The speaker was Tom Stemmler from Daisy Gardens. I won (clockwise from back left) a Dwarf Euonymous, Loyalist Hosta, Viburnum Kilimanjaro, Stilletto Dwarf Hosta, and Brilliant red Caladium.

First blooms on a new perennial geranium that I got from Van Bourgondiens. pratense Splish Splash hardy geranium.

Blueberries are not quite blue yet. Hoping to beat the Blue Jays to them this year.

Bob ties up the Fading Daffodills to keep the beds neat.

This gorgeous blue Hydrangea was a Christmas gift from Bob last year.

We divided the two small Hosta clumps by the pond and ended up with over 60 small plants!

Jackmanii Clematis is full of blooms on the arbor.

Houttuynia Cordata blooms white in the grass bed.

Houttuynia Cordata (Chameleon plant) leaves have white, red, pink, yellow, and green on each leaf. Spreads like crazy!

Plum tomatos the size of marbles.

Rose Campion looks great with the brown eyed susans.

Some of our favorites that are growing at the moment include Asiatic Lilies, Thyme, Strawberry Parfait Dianthus, Purple Coneflower, Lance Leaf Coreopsis, Clematis, Silvestri Anemone, Bleeding Hearts, Kiwi, Lettuce, Strawberries, and Knockout Rose. All the greenery is so beautiful, everything is so lush and lovely! 

Asiatic Lilies have started to open right across from the front door.

Thyme path loves all this rain. I'm sick of it!

Strawberry Parfait Dianthus blooms near the front door.

First purple Cone flower of the season opened.

Lance Leaf Coreopsis has started to open in the wildflower bed.

Clematis on the arbor has large purple blooms.

These great little Silvestri Anemones are blooming in the far back corner. They spread since last year when I got them from my friends Werner and Joan. Very cheerful!

Bleeding Hearts are still blooming in the back. Seems like months!

I've never noticed the seeds hanging off the Bleeding Hearts like this year. Each branch is covered with pea like seed pods. Maybe more plants next year!

Close up of Kiwi bloom. Flowers all face down. I tipped this one up for the photo.

Vining Kiwi climbs the shed wall. Flowers just started opening.

Lance Leaf Coreopsis blooms in the pool bed. I thought this was a Shasta Daisy until the flowers started to open.

Check out the size of Bob's gorgeous lettuce. We're eating it regularly! Celery is on the far right. Strawberries are blooming next to the bunny. Knockout Rose is next to the lattice.

Lavender is blooming in the front and back yards. This stand is behind the pool among the sea shells.

Bob got the pond all ready for the season but, when he put his three year old fish in a bucket to clean the pond, they were gone.

We got seven new Goldfish and twenty minutes after we put them in, our cat brought one to Bob in her mouth. He tossed it back in but we only had six in the morning.

Plant in the pond is a new water Hyacinth. Hosta behind it needs to be divided.

New solar lit glass bird bath from Bonnie in the bed right by the back door.

Volunteer Snapdragon came back from last year.

Double Mock Orange Tree in the back. The latin name is Philadelphus. Smells like orange blossoms or jasmine. Smells wonderful!

Something is wrong with my Crabapple Ruby Tears. I don't know if it's a scab or a rust but it looks nasty and it is all over it. Anyone know what to do?

Rose Campion blooms hot pink behind the pool fence. Kind of weedy but I let it stay next to some weedy Yellow Daisies.

Large copper containers on either side of the fountain have Cannas surrounded by Gazania, Portulaca, Allysum, and Lobelia. Other containers are full of Geraniums, Rosemary, Tuberose bulbs, and Ranunculus bulbs.

Large Terra cotta containers also have Cannas. This one is on the corner of the garage.

Got most of the pool courtyard set up this weekend with terra cotta containers. Door in need of paint leads to Bob's paint shop. Chicken coop is in the back right corner. Rose Campion is blooming alongside the pool fence on the far right.

Cannas are starting to come up near the containers along the pool fence on the corner where the Zebra Grass used to be. Cell packs in the foreground of tall Celosia and cleomes will go in the beds near the garage walls with Cosmos and Pyrethrum Daisy seeds.

Kousa Dogwood looks spectacular this year. Really loaded with flowers!
