Now that is what we have been waiting for! Yay, spring! We must be on the same schedule- my poppies look exactly like yours! Your yard is lovely...thanks for sharing the pics!
Nothing says Massachusetts to me more than cedar shakes on the houses! I love it. Your purple bearded irises are beautiful! I thought I got some last year. But what I actually got are pale purple and yellow. They are ok, but nothing compared to that rich deep purple!!
