How Does Your Garden Grow?

 

The honeysuckle vine is so overgrown, not many leaves appearing.


The male cardinal wasn't happy I was thinking of pruning or taking the honeysuckle vine down


In the trough, some green things growing.



Forsythia starting to bloom. Nan said I could take a cutting and stick it in the ground and another forsythia bush would grow. This might be a good replacement for the honeysuckle vine.


Creeping Charlie is in bloom


Vinca


New leaves on the snowball bush


Daffodils and Alpine Bells



What's that behind the garden flag?



A tiny, flower.


Hydrangea leaves. Hopefully, there will be lots of flowers this year.


Lots and lots of daffodils. I thought of cutting some to bring inside, but allergies.


Maple pollen. More Achooo!


Daffodils by the lamp post


Two peace lily flowers


Lettuce!

  2. Your garden is looking better than mine. You have a ton of daffs. I love them. I don't think my vinca has started yet. I see yours already has little purple flowers. And I saw a male cardinal last week, too. First in over four years.

  3. You are definitely ahead of me, but it is amazing how much has come out with those few beautiful days. I didn't know forsythia could root that way. That is interesting. Hmm. Everything is looking great, and enjoy the lettuce. Hugs-Erika

  6. Love how everything is blooming in your garden! I think my favorites are the daffodils and forsythia. Yellow is such a cheerful color.

    1. The bunnies are here, I just haven’t seen them out. It was cool and rainy today. Either they are staying in and staying warm or else they are making more little bunnies.

  8. The cardinal doesn't need leaves. He likes it just the way it is :) Our honeysuckle doesn't provide enough cover for nesting. I love forsythia, and it does root easily. It's definitely looking like spring in your yard :)

    1. He might not have much longer to like it. It doesn't look like it's doing very well.

  10. the garden is alive again! Love the daffodils ..We have an area in Twin peaks where the guy lost his wife like 20 years ago and he created a big daffodil garden in her honor. every year all the locals and tourists love to drive by and see the garden. i took way too many photos because i love them so much.
