    My waterlily has flowered! 4 5 Very Happy Water lily red Flowering and Water bowl garden
    It is more a soft pink than a red, but I love this flower. Because of the cold weather, I haven’t been able to get one of these to flower before, so i am really happy with this one. Will have to wait and see if any of my other waterlilies flower.

    Geranium flowering 2 Geranium johnsons blue Flowering and Ornamental garden
    This flower is much bigger than the flower of the cranesbill geranium, very similar to the Sandy’s chris canning geranium. It also dies back completely unlike the cranesbill geranium.

    More bearded iris photos 1 2 Bearded iris mulberry punch Flowering and Front garden
    Mulberry punch is flowering. This is the first time that this has flowered, as I planted it in the front which has really poor soil. One of my goals for this year will be to start working on improving the soil in the front.

    First tomato! 5 3 Tomato rid fig dwarf Setting Fruit and Edible garden
    Just noticed that the first tomato has appeared on one of the cherry tomatoes. At least half of the tomato bushes have started flowering. The ones in the no-dig bed are doing better than the others.
