Bloom Day!
It's been bothering me that I have this gardening blog and have barely posted a picture in months. So today, I got my little self out and took pictures. Finally, proof, I really DO have a yard!
Daffies, daffies, daffies |
These tulips turn orange-pink in the middle and they smell like lemon. |
First bloom on my new viburnum I planted last year. |
I love hyacinth. The smell IS spring. |
Lilac in bud. |
Flowering quince. |
These guys were a surprise! I dug them up last fall and never got them back in the ground. They are The Bravest Bulbs Ever. |
Baby's breath? A volunteer shrub from next door that I encouraged. |
My very stingy camellia's one bloom. |
Cherry blossoms on our sour cherry! |
Brave, brave hellebore. |
Dogwood buds. |
Forky collection. Because everyone needs three. |
I have a niece who is an amazing photographer. I wish I had her talent and could better capture how beautiful this haze of green is. |
Garden assistants, i.e., why the hellebore is so brave. |
What a beautiful Spring in your yard! I have much envy: quince, sour cherry, camellia, and viburnum are all on my "someday..." list. And now I think I need another fork or two.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cherry! i bought three little viburnums last spring, and this one is the deciduous one. I think I bought them all AFTER they bloomed, so this really is the first time I've seen a flower on any of them. The other two appear to be evergreen here in Zone 7 and have no flowers yet.
ReplyDeleteI didn't set out to own three forkies, but somehow I keep managing to bend one of the tines and am forced to buy a new one.
