Now mine isnt in bloom yet.. I like them lots..... I thought I drove hubby mad with my flowers, but he likes them.. Asked for a red white an blue bed this time.. I am on that , but not as easy as it sounds. I have one bed I am making of all red Petunias , from your seeds TK. I am loving that one....... PS... My horse isn't here, this is my Nitemare..

It looks like it is the yellow blackberry lily and if it is that's going to be way cool. I don't have any seeds for them so this little plant is my only one. And I'd like to have more of them to intersperse with the spring bulbs.

They bloom for such a long time once they get started. Yep they come in yellow and orange. there is a purple one too but it isn't actually a Blackberry lily it just looks like one in purple. I've read about it. I love the red, white and blue theme you are working on. It's going to be great. I keep on running into my black seeds and thinking that a black and white bed might be fun. I haven't quite decided though.

I've got those and some pink ones and it just sounds like a pretty color combination to me. I've also got some of the scarbosia 'ebony'. I don't remember at the moment when that is suppose to be planted but when I do I'll set some aside for you too. And there was still something besides those two but it hasn't come to me yet. ...now where did i put that ginko.....?
