Over the weekend I saw these violas at the garden store, and couldn’t help bringing them home. The colors just made me happy.
Today I was out in the garden, and noticed that in the next garden bed, the clematis I planted last year has started to bloom. As are the mystery iris I also planted last year that someone gave me – I didn’t know what color they were.
I sense a theme. Funny that it was totally random on my part.

I love those little violas. I never plant them anymore. Remind me in October when it’s finally cool enough to have them here again…
Pretty!! We’re not quite there – just tulips so far. And my mind went instantly to the song “Purple Kind of Day” by Laura Brino when I saw your title:

Random seems to be a pretty theme for you 🙂 I am very partial to that iris!
Still! Purple and yellow = all good. How fun that your unknown iris fit right into the grand plan you didn’t even know you had!
You’re ahead of us in the blooming department. I love clematis and iris! Our little johnny-jump-ups are just starting to pop. Time for some sun tea on the back porch, eh?
Your garden must be quite pretty this bloomin’ time of year!
Totally meant to be!
Nothing wrong with purple and yellow, eh? Very happy spring colors.
