The days are longer, the temperatures are rising and the blooms are increasing. The azaleas are beautiful and the grass is greener than green. It must be Master’s Week. It rained heavily yesterday and the wind is till gusting. That clearly means it is Master’s.
Every Saturday, the Six On Saturday group meets online and posts 6 photos taken that day or from the past week. It is cool to see photos of gardens from all over the world. Check it out tomorrow. It is hosted by Jim Stephens. This is the link https://gardenruminations.co.uk.
The Peony is unnamed but it is a stunner.
The Piedmont azalea is a native Rhododendron canescens.
The knockout rose is also unnamed but has been reliable for many years now.
Iris pseudocorus is in full bloom now and it is glorious.
Iris tectorum known as the roof iris is also blooming beautifully this week.
The last photo is the bloom of the tulip poplar, Liriodendron tulipifera. This is a tall, up to 60 foot tree with a very straight trunk. The blooms are at the top of the tree and this one must have come down with the gusty winds we have been having this week.
Its time to get back to watching the Masters.
Happy Gardening!!

Enjoy watching the tournament. I love the name of The Knockout Rose, it does look stunning.
Nice choice : I didn’t know the Piedmont azalea: is it a large shrub? Like an azalea then?
It is about 2 meters high and wide. So, it can be a large azalea. Its blooms are mostly white with a delicate pink shading. It is a slow grower and likes moist areas
I love those Iris – especially the Roof Iris.
My favourite this week is the Piedmont Azalea, such pretty flowers!
