Great stuff! Being in the subtropics, TheGreenMan, do you continually have bug-battles? I love those colors! I can picture Pitcher plants around those. But what do I know? 
Lol
I snapped this lone daffodil yesterday. Then I noticed about ten more today...phone not on me, of course.
Nice, Andrew! I hope you'll have lots of purple again this year in the pepper garden. That bee-on-Pube pic made me think of this one I took last year while passing by a neighbor's house.

Oh yeah, neverending whiteflies, mealybugs, scales, thrips, aphids, and mites. It's a constant battle.Bhuter said:

Awesome GIP. Let me see if I can catch a bee in action this year.

this is our 'Hardy Hibiscus' only one i have been able to keep alive in a protected heavily mulched corner of our zone 4 garden
and a couple more daylily pics
i've got soo many more flower pics from our garden, i'll drop more here as i find them on my phone, or wife's phone, or other computer
i think Swamp mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos), also known as rose mallow hibiscus or swamp hibiscus, a shrubby, moisture loving plant in the hibiscus family, is the hardier Hibiscus
and
Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, known colloquially as Chinese hibiscus, China rose, Hawaiian hibiscus, rose mallow and shoeblackplant, is a species of tropical hibiscus, a flowering plant in the Hibisceae tribe of the family Malvaceae is the more tropical hibiscus
i just googled that up real quick
all I knew was that most of the hibiscus won't survive this far north.
The salmon colored flower is a lily 'Lilium' not a daylily 'Hemerocallis' (bulbs, not fans)
found a pic of the Tulips
