Some May blooms!

Red Poppies....so hard to capture the true red color of these!
Yellow Missouri Primrose blooming for the first time today. This Mini Rose (do not know the name) took a big hit with our last frost and I didn't know if it was going to make it...but it's blooming today! This is another bloom color I just can't capture.
The window box is growing well. It's too bad that the Japanese Maple was damaged, but it looks like it's going to make it.
A surprise bloom! I have a White Coneflower in this bed, and after 5 years, it reseeded!
The White Coneflower is to the left of this picture.
Behind the hanging basket is my TINY Endless Summer Hydrangea. It was planted last summer and I was hoping that it would fill the space to the left of the window box...but, just like all the other plants....it was hit hard with the frost. It's coming back, but I don't think it will grow much this year.
My front bed as you walk up the walkway.
Reseeding Love in a Mist in the front bed.
Penstemom Huskers Red.
Veronica Blue. I just love how the ends bend over...such a pretty pale blue color!
Potentilla Melton's Fire I winter sowed last year. I moved them a few days ago to the side and front bed.
