No, THAT's Ranunculus! Sorry, very bad joke. What IS ridiculous is this weather we've been having. I know, I know. It is Spring, and it is Oregon. But the flowers I bought on Saturday are still sitting out in the rain on my front walk, waiting to be put into the ground. I decided to forego the regular geraniums this year and try something new. I was totally drawn to these beautiful yellow ranunculus-es. ( I wonder what the plural for that is....)
I would love to get just a tiny break in the weather, a little sunshine, dig a few holes, get my hands dirty; then my flowers will welcome the rain and I won't have to worry about watering them. But I am not going to plant flowers in the rain. I am not going to plant flowers in the rain. Well, if this keeps up I guess I may be planting flowers in the rain.
Happy Spring!

Those plants are gorgeous ~ I am also crossing my fingers for a break in the rain. I think one is coming tomorrow....we shall see.
And I thought your joke was far from ridiculous or rannuculus!
I like ranunculus bulbs (I think you make the bulbs plural 'cause it ends in us) and looking out at the lashing rain I hear you on having to plant in the rain. Got wet harvest veggies for dinner.
I love ranunculus! I'm going to be getting some for my yard too. I think they'll look great with my peonies. I LOVE perennials!
Love the plants... beautiful. I don't know why but I'm kind of enjoying the last few cozy rainy days at home in front of the fire. I'm sure I'll be totally sick of it in a few days but for now it's cozy.
