Backyard Blooms

  I am linking up with Gemma's  Scenic Weekend 

For this week's Scenic Weekend  I am sharing my backyard blooms. Hubby has the green thumb and the flowers are looking beautiful this spring. You will see that purple is the theme of our gardens and yard. Purple irises, purple clematis, purple rhododendrons.

You can click on the photos for larger viewing images.  

 In my yard these irises look purple but when taking their photo they show up more blueish?

















I hope you enjoyed my bloom. 

I hope you enjoyed my scenic weekend.  I wish everyone a safe and happy weekend.  

 Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate your comments. Thanks for stopping by to see my post and thanks to Gemma for hosting Scenic Weekends.

    Your flowers are beautiful...I've said before and this proves it again, that your yard is as beautiful as any nature park anywhere! More flowers, more birds than a lot of places people plan to visit.
