I've been remiss in posting Spring flower photos, so here are a couple from today

I've been dealing with a twisted knee so I've been off of my feet, since Friday. However, I'm finally able to get out and check out the flora. Today I noticed that the Peony and Mock Orange started to bloom.

Allergies on the coat tails of a bad case of 'airplane plague' I'm just now getting over.

I'll be out cutting some for a bouquet, soon, because there are so many blooms, and they are so heavy. I'm just glad they aren't all in full bloom because we're in for a heavy rain, tonight and tomorrow. I tie them up, but those flowers do get weighed down when they are wet!

I'm in the process of replacing annual plants with perennials, to make gardening a little easier. I love planting wildflower seeds, because you never know what you are going to get.

Thanks for posting. Lovely pink color. I damaged my Meniscus tendon, and know how a sore knee feels. It flares up occasionally. Recover soon.
