Gardener Blogger's Bloom Day, March 15, 2008
On the fifteenth of every month, Carol of May Dreams Gardens is kind enough to host Gardener Blogger’s Bloom Day.
Because of GBBD, all of us gardening enthusiasts can see what’s blooming in our fellow bloggers' gardens all over the world.
Thanks Carol.
Here’s what is blooming in my garden in March.
No words just pictures.
Wow, it all looks so lush and vibrant. Beautiful!

The Azaleas and roses are beautiful - you have an incredible variety of plants in bloom, many of which I don't know (like the deep-blue flower and the blue pea-like vining flowers).
I'm imagining that your gardening weather is beautiful.

Lots of beauties here. I'd expect nothing less from a California garden. :-)

Good thing it was photos. Considering a Pic is worth a 1000 words I wouldn't have enough time to read them all. I'm still digging up old photos for my posts since any words I might be using wouldn't be suitable for polite company. Racking faracking winter still has us by the throat.

What a great array of flowers and plants. You must have a large property to hold it all. Happy GTS,

Carol, Gail, Curtis,
Thanks for visiting.
Kate,
The vine is a Lilac Vine (Hardenbergia violacea) I really like it because it blooms in winter but the vine itself only last about 3-5 years, then it starts to die. That is the only bummer. I am getting a headache trying to remember what that other purple flower is called. When I remember I'll email you.
Pam and Wiseacre,
It has been a rainy but warm winter. I think spring is slightly early this year.
Aiyana,
My yard is almost an acre. I started from scratch about three years ago and it's about 1/3 finished.
Mr. McGregor's Daughter,
Thank you.

Thank you for that blast of spring. Your garden is so hopeful for us northern dreamers. I have a pavlovian reaction to azaleas in bloom. They take me to earlier days and childhood. In my current dreams of spring I had left out azaleas - you brought them back!

Chigiy, by now you should know that if a plant blooms blue or purple everyone will want to know the name...my favorite is photo ID 9_gbbd_308.
But yellow daisies are allowed to be anonymous like the blog name.
You have a gorgeous March garden!
