How Does Your Garden Grow?



Little pots of pansies for the mailbox planter


The forsythia finally bloomed


Green things Himself planted are sprouting


A daffodil all by its lone under the Japanese maple tree


Snowball bushes pushing out leaves


We contracted with a new landscaper. This is one are that he will take care of. Removing all the little saplings.


Derry's daffodils are coming up. I miss you.


They hydrangea was looking pretty pathetic. I thought it didn't survive the transplant


but there are a couple of buds popping out!


The wall of daffodils. Another area the landscaper will take care of. Maybe he can advise what else to plant after the daffodils fade.


Can you see the robin in the tree?


A pink, polka-dotted balloon floated into the yard up by the woods.  Run away! We all float down here! 😸

    1. I was surprised to see how quickly the daffs bloomed. A few days ago, they had buds and then blink, flowers

  5. OOOOooo spooky reference! I just love Daffodils .... love their cheery yellow color after a drab winter but also love the fact that nothing eats the flowers or the bulbs.. Wouldn't purple lilac bushes look great along with those yellow daffodils... but they would probably bloom the same time and that still leaves you nothing nice to look at for the summer... You need a summer bloomer.. HHmmm interested to see what your gardener suggests..

    1. I have a hydrangea that blooms late July early August. Lilacs are wonderful, but horrific for the allergies

  6. We've got rain and more rain. My dogwood tree didn't bloom this year. Odd.

    1. Is the dogwood just being a late bloomer this year?

    1. The forsythia really adds a pop of color to the woods. Too bad the flowers don't last through Fall

  8. Happy belated Easter. Sorry this wish is late, but I was offline most of yesterday.

    Wow. A landscaper. Good for you. Those daffs look absolutely lovely and I am sure you will have a stunning garden this year.

    1. I don't know about a stunning garden, but hopefully it will look a bit neater and not so overgrown

  9. nice spring growing in your hard. It must feel so good to you. i haven't found much spring colors yet up here but I have been down the mountain off and on this last week - three times..and have gone searching for springs. I did find some. I'm waiting to see pics of that forest across the street to green up.
