Outdoor Wednesday - spring is here!!

I love everything about spring - the flowers - the promise of more flowers - the warm days - the sunshine - the car covered with soft yellow pollen (oh wait, I don't like that part - but you have to admit it does give the car a new look) - the leisurely days - the outdoors fun - oh I just love spring!!!

Come along with me and enjoy some flowers that were in my garden or friends' gardens - we all love to work in the yard!!!

A friend's lovely fence with petunias . . .

A clump of single roses . . .

What a pretty iris . . .

Lilac bushes that sweep you away with that heavenly scent . . .

These three were growing all together at a friend's house. . .



Bleeding heart - my white one is about to bloom any day now . . .

Columbine - I love their common name, Granny's Bonnet . . .

A whole field of iris . . .



One California Poppy . . .



Stop over at A Southern Dreamer to find more wonderful Outdoor Wednesday posts - you'll have a great time . . .

As I scrolled down your blog, the next flower would fetch another Wow. My absolute favorite was the bleeding heart photo. Great job!
