I still can't believe May is here already. I am so glad  a lot my flowers are starting to burst out in bloom.

Looking up at a Crown Imperial blossom.

Dandelion seed heads. I know they're weeds but I still think they're pretty close up.

Beautiful images Vivian. Are the Crown Imperials hard to grow? I'd love to get myself a couple to put around the koi pond.
Vivian P. May 4, 2009, 5:53pm EDT
Thanks Ann, and Katherine no they are easily grown . Buy them as bulbs in the fall, and plant like tulips.
