In the Garden


Walking around the yard this week, between the raindrops, I spotted my garden fairy's residence.



Beautiful green moss growing up an old dogwood.
(probably not good for the tree I'm guessing)

Pumpkin Pie snacking on grass.


My weeping redbud tree about ready to burst.


A beautiful daffodil, glowing yellow and orange.


A delicate violet, not shrinking from anyone.


A petite yellow tulip, curling her petal.


And a neighborly cat stopping by for a visit.

Let the blooming begin!



The sun finally came out after 2 days of rain and clouds.
So many beautiful things blooming and growing in my yard!



I love the frilly insides of this daffodil and the alternating purple and pink flowers on the lungwort.



Bleeding hearts are just starting.
This early pink tulip opens up as the day goes on but only if it's sunny.


I bought this rockfoil at the greenhouse on Monday.



I planted my peas mid-March and they are starting to come up.


Planted this lettuce last week. So far, so good.
I'm sure something will come along and eat it soon.


Meemee take a break at the butterfly puddler.



This is what is growing in my neighbor's yard. Not that I mind his dandelions.

Finally finished my painting of Pumpkin Pie and it is sold!
Hope to have prints available someday soon.
