Rita's Garden

These miniature irises are growing in my friend Rita's garden.  Their colour is just so rich.

 Rita has a lovely collection of Hellebore plants.

 Some have very delicate leaves and colours.

 Others are darker and richer coloured.

 The contrast against the green leaves is lovely.

 Here tree peony is putting forth new growth.

 If you look closely you can see the first robin of Spring flying away, it didn't want it's picture taken.

 The witch hazel is showing signs of Spring growth.

 These almost look waxy in their appearance.

 Pink and purple with a dash of green, traditional Spring colours coming out to visit.

Spring forward tonight with the time change!
