While I'm eagerly awaiting the first blooms of 2017, I thought I'd go through my 2016 garden photos and share some of the photos that I've never posted. There are hundreds, but here are some of the better ones.

Wild Bergamot with Purple Coneflower in the foreground and Black-eyed Susan in the background.

I can't wait, either. I'm done with winter!
I'm excited to see some new blooms this year. I should have at least a few more species blooming, so I can hardly wait to see what they look like!
