May Flowers

 As May begins here on the banks of the Oostanaula, our garden is still choked with weeds and marred by neglect, but the same factors which have inspired the weeds to flourish have also brought beautiful and prolific blooms. 

Sheila walks through the weedy path past several varieties of irises at the foot of the levee.

Ain't they pretty?

I think I will buy a weed torch; I just despise using weed killer.

The blackberry blossoms are giving way to lots of little green fruits.

Only three flowers on the peonies so far.

The Knock-Out roses are gorgeous.

These last three pictures are from a few days earlier:

The first peony.

Volunteer oxalis at the back steps.

Another Knock-out rose.
