Iris cristata alba,which I love, has disappeared this year. Of
course, I might still see some green. It is extremely early here
and we are having a cold, rainy (more than usual ?) April and
the beginning of May. Nothing in bloom here..not even daffs.
Only crocus and not too many of them.

My mud garden is looking better but the frost is still there so
it is difficult to dig which makes a nice excuse for not working
in the garden. :-)

Almost time for St. Louis,

Ellen (who needs an iris fix and can't wait)
