| I dunno. . . from the pictures, it looks like you did have a "spectacular spring" -- but that's just my opinion and you are probably like most of us and are a more severe critic of your own work. But I loved the pics. Wish I could add all of them to my wishlist. |

| These are really beautiful shots; everything looks so fresh and spring-like. Love the foxgloves and lupines especially. Ingrid |

| Amazing pictures----I love the Lupines with the woods behind them--- I also love the Lychnis Coronaria -(Rose Campion)---- I think I read somewhere that this plant was in Shakespeare's garden---- Thanks for sharing these lovely pictures. Florence |

| silverkelt, very nice pics! I am especially in love with your Crocus Rose (sooner or later I have to get that one for myself, too). Comte de Chambord looks also absolutely wonderful. I envy you a little that you can grow Lupines and Foxgloves so well. They are so beautiful plants. Thanks for posting, Christina |

| Siverkelt, looking at my Mme. Alfred Carriere, Georgetown Tea (is producing her first fully developed flowers in my garden right now) and Climbing Devonienis I have to admit you got a point there :-)! But of course I am still longing for lupines and foxgloves... Christina |

| Wow, what a great garden! I can only dream about lupines like that. Lovely roses, too. Masha |
