Happy May Day To You........

Happy May Day to everyone! This is the day that the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it............



This is one of our three cats. Her name is 'Sister'.........




This is Ling-Ling. Murphy his look-a-like brother is asleep somewhere.



Old fashion petunias........

This is Marion (my friend from Wales) I name my flowers, do you?



A lavender rose, I don't know the variety........



The larkspur is beginning to bloom. It's pretty growing with the roses.......





This is an important gardening tool......Let's me know when I absolutely must quit gardening and go inside........It hangs under the back porch........Big so that I can see it quite a distance away.







This is a David Austin rose........







This is a David Austin Rose......I have several that I don't have pictures of....I really like his roses, as they seem to be very hardy and easy to grow........








This is a Bianca rose.......They have bloomed profusely this spring.......


Thanks for visiting with me.......................

Your garden and kitty photos are so full of color and life!
My dear late MIL had a kitty named Ming, who was a near twin to your Ling!
Happy May

I dearly LOVE roses but have never been able to grow them. Back in Illinois I could not do it and here in Ga we are in a drought right now. I do have one blooming and I have absolutely NO IDEA how as most of what was planted is dying for lack of water. I can only water every other day and I bet they will be telling us soon to stop if it does not rain soon. Yours are very pretty..Sandy

Betty, Lovely post. The cats are so adorable I could hug them all the way from here. Makes me miss my late Siamese cats even more. Garden flowers lovely too. David Austin roses are the tops. Visited his nursery some years ago.

Thank you so much for the post options info. It worked - it's all done. Learn something new every day.

Betty, your flowers are so pretty! I love the old fashioned petunias. I've never thought about naming my flowers but it sounds like a good idea.

Happy May Day to you dear Betty! We don't celebrate May Day here in Canada so it's been fun learning about the traditions:-) Your kitties are just gorgeous and so healthy looking...I grew up always having a cat but haven't had one in over 30 years now due to some allergies. I so enjoyed seeing all your flowers...our roses don't bloom until July!! My tulips haven't even opened yet! lol xox
