| Got the camera out yesteday and was taking some more pictures, enjoy.
My wife and I have just finished completed the backyard plantings for the spring, and the clementis is blooming as well. Also took a few pictures of the bee's feeding on the flowers. Thanks for looking. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. |

| Your yard looks fantastic. Very nicely designed. I am guessing you had to wait a great deal of time to get those shots of the bees. Great. Thanks for sharing. |

| Thanks for the nice comments. The yard has been a work in progress for about 5 years. We are finally 'happy' with it, and will focus on just keeping the plants looking good. The bee pictures were actually easier than I expected. I took about 60 images, tossed out about 50 of them and had 10 that were good. Thats a pretty good ratio, and my time commitment was about 10 minutes. We have lots and lots of bees in the flowers. |

| Beautiful yard. What are the roses in the 2nd picture? |

| Double Knockout roses. Don't buy 'knockout roses' unless the tag specifically states they are 'double'. The flowers are much more robust with the doubles. |
