Our yard

On the property of our new house there is:
Pink roses, and others that haven't started blooming yet,
White and Ivory columbines,
Purple irises,
Lilies of the valley,
Red tulips in the front,
Pink and yellow in the back,
White and dark purple Lilacs,
Crocuses,
Violets in blue, purple, white, light rose, mauve, and pink,
Daffodils in many shapes, colors and sizes,
Allium,
Big pink hyacinths and little muscari,
Star of Bethlehem,
Coral bells,
Pale pinkish purple phlox,
Blue flax,
Pink dogwoods,
Pale pink rhodedendron,
Hens and chicks,
Flowering sedums,
Candytuft,
Primroses in a variety of colors,
Yellow pansies,
And a few more things that I haven't identified yet.
It is clear to me that whoever lived here before us loved flowers.
We are grateful for the legacy and the ability to keep cut flowers in a vase on the table.
