Field of wishes
What's up, buttercup?
Wild strawberry
The lily of the valley pips have popped
It turns out the green thing Himself planted is a Clematis
Potential wishes
Hey! What are you doing out there? Shouldn't you be in here filling our food bowls?

The peas are climbing
New, little branches on the Japanese maple. I need to read up on how to propagate so I can give a sapling to the Nephew.
Quill avidly watches the inside of his eyelids while
Calli watches the bluejay and the little, red squirrel.
The first perfect day of many (I hope)

How does your garden grow?
I love those kinds of wildflowers :) Some wild strawberry has taken root in between some of my patio stones, and I'm encouraging it.
ReplyDeleteSadly, the wild strawberries will be mowed under
DeleteI tried several times to grow Clematis up north and failed miserably each time. Good luck to Himself! I hope it takes! :)
ReplyDeleteShhh, don't tell Himself we had one before and it didn't survive the Winter
DeleteOur garden enjoyed some wonderful sunshine yesterday but is getting rather wet at the moment ...
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed seeing your photographs.
Have a good week ahead.
All the best Jan
We have some rain moving in tonight
DeleteI like seeing the kitties watching you outside. The dogs do that too if they aren't out. We are greening up too. It's great, isn't it? hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteIt feels so good to go outside without having to wear bulky jackets/sweaters
DeleteGreat pics!! And, of course I always enjoy seeing pics of the kitties!
ReplyDeleteThe kitties like to have their picture taken
DeleteI've been watching my dandelions go through their cycle. I love the idea of them... And love that the woods are leafing out. Nice to see what's going on in your garden.
ReplyDeleteI love dandelions. I was sad to see them mowed under when the lawn guy showed up
Deletei get it - i use to go to the old ballfield by the lake to get photos of the wildflowers - they have since graded everything doiwn and added sprinklers and no wildflowers will be growing there now... Dandelions are amazing to me.
DeleteLove the sky photos. I got some great moon photos last night. Wonderful how cats can relax and sleep. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI was surprised the sky photos came out as I just used the iPhone camera. It was cloudy so we couldn't see the eclipse
DeleteI got this message for this post just now. Could not connect with reCAPTCHA. What is wrong with blogger? Had to reload your post, and it caused me to stop it in the middle. This is the third time I had to reload your post. I know some of mine are long, but this was ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteMy lilies of the valley are now finished blooming and are ready to go to sleep. I guess my season is ahead of yours.
Yup, we're at a higher elevation so Spring comes later. We also have a shorter growing season
