Maryland Spring Flowers
We have enjoyed several days of beautiful weather in Maryland as many work in their home gardens. Now is the time to be planting spring flowers and plants. We've planted a number of tomato plants and look forward to lots of tomatoes during the summer. When selecting flowers to plant, we focus on those that look good in photographs since one of our hobbies is flower photography. Dolores and I select the colors that both of us like.
The following photographs give you an idea of what is now growing in our Kentlands home garden in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Life is better when there are flowers to photograph.
Have a great week with your camera in hand.

Another beautiful start to a beautiful Sunday!! Have a fantastic day!
Our flowers are certainly starting to pop here as we have had 2 weeks of sun. (YEAH) I've been out with the camera and can't wait to share over the next couple weeks my finds.
Thanks for stopping by. We have another beautiful day in Maryland and life is good.

Once again, beautiful Roy! Our warm weather comes much sooner than yours so our tomato plants are already churning out the tomatoes. I grow mainly grape & cherry tomatoes. That way the squirrels and birds can't get to every one of them.
Roy: Beautiful flowers on a nice spring day...thanks for sharing these photos. I hope you and Dolores have a great day!
What beautiful flowers you always present, Roy! Thank you for brightening up our blogs!
Hi Roy and Delores,
What a good way to start out the day.
After a week of rain we will be having a lot of flowers blooming herer as well.
Thanks for sharing the shots.
Best, Clint McKie
It is good to hear from you. I am glad that you enjoy the flower photographs. They are also on Pinterest.
Have an outstanding week, with your camera in hand.

Hello Roy~ Love the dahlias! My allergies have been horrible this week, so I've been staying inside quite a bit. I happened to catch the Martha Stewart show and they were working with dahlias. I loved all the bright colors. I'm beginning to think I'd like to plant some to enjoy in my own yard!
I always welcome your comments. Enjoy the spring flowers.

More stellar photos! I like the first shot best... the inside pink contrasting with the white edges is simply stunning.
