"When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf"

[Raefindel]

Well, Hello fellow gardeners! I have missed you as I tarried in the flower shop. But thankfully, I have left cut flowers behind and have returned to growing things.

It seems their delight to trample growing things that are not even in their way!

What's blooming, you ask? Why, mostly purple things. the Lilacs are in bloom and they are Far and away my favorite.

Also my Bearded Irises are about to bloom. they are very prolific. Last year I added a 40-foot garden along the driveway and filled it with irises and still gave enough away to supply a small army of Elven and Hobbit gardeners. Irises anyone? I'll be digging them up again in the fall.
