Rock Garden Makes Me Happy


I am socked in working on Confidence Camp notebooks. But the rock garden is looking so pretty! This is a shot across the top with lots of color.

Now the Hawara daffodils are blooming. I put the wrong labels on earlier ones, I'll have to go back and fix those.

I have a tiny bit of the 'Candystripe' moss phlox left. Most of it reverted to plain pink and white.

One of the Lewisia has a lot of buds. I'm hopeful.

And the Rock Cress is in full bloom. It's quite reliable- one of the survivors from the original garden.

OK, it's back to work for me. Got a LOT done today, but there is lots to do yet.
