| The purple-pink azaleas always bloom about a week and a half after the baby pink ones. They look a lot better now that the big tree that was shading them has been cut down. |

| These are dark pink ones are getting old, and I've had to cut off a lot of dead branches this spring. This has been a good year for columbine.     |
Most of my columbine came from my friend Brenda's garden. I took seeds from her plants and sprinkled them in my beds. This is a hardy strain, and the plants are very sturdy, not delicate like a lot of columbine.
Just a few of my Dutch irises came back this year, and they are all white. Last year I had yellow, and 2 shades of purple too.
I'm not sure of the name of this plant, but it looks better this year than it ever has.
I can't remember what this is either, but it usually blooms in June, not April!

Your flowers are just so beautiful. I'm very envious. I have never planted columbine, but yours are outstanding. I would love to have a few of your seeds from the hardy ones that came from your friend Brenda's garden, if you find time to collect them for me. I would be glad to return the favor if there is something from my garden that you would like - although I'll warn you, most of my flowers are bulb types - day lilies, daffodils, Asian lilies. I'm trying to branch out.
