Rhododendron

Buttercup, Ranunculus repens

I found this Buttercup in an empty lot and dug it up for our garden where it is thriving, almost too well. The flowers have a very shiny sheen.

Dandelion

White primrose Primula, Polyanthus group

Viburnum pilcatum tomentosum 'Mariesii'

This photo was taken last spring of my favorite Viburnum. This Viburnum will flower again in the fall and more sporadically during the year. Quite a lovely shrub with many flowers covering the branches.

Japanese quince Chaenomeles japonica

This is a very nice pink and white flowered shrub. A different color than the usual red variety we see a lot of here in NJ.

Here's a wonderful website with more information and photos on this beautiful spring flowering shrub or small tree.

Tulip 'Angelique'

This is a photo of my favorite tulip 'Angelique'. It is very long lasting on strong stems, very reliable and has a wonderful color. It dwarfs the tiny Japanese maple next to it.
