Shade Tapestry
comments (0) April 14th, 2011 in gallery
I love the early blues of the Iris reticulatas. Here is 'Cantab' adding a blue mist to the Mid-March display on our Shade Path. A very pleasant scene to view while bundled for a little walk down the path or from the living room window.

About this contest
In the garden, the signs of spring are subtle but significant. Snow recedes and brown turns to green as the weather warms and the daylight lengthens. Grab your camera and post a "spring awakenings" photo in this gallery by April 15 for a chance to win a prize.
Fine Gardening's staff members will choose a winner based on design appeal, creativity, and photo quality. The winner will receive a $100 gift certificate from White Flower Farm. See the Official Contest Rules for details.
