Happy Easter, everyone. I bought myself three bunches of tulips to enjoy over this joyous weekend and thought I would share them with you all. This colour is a tad harsh as I was rushing ( nothing new there!)
I have been out to the garden and picked up a few downed sticks and branches and I wanted to show you what is blooming in our garden this Good Friday, 2013.
 |
| Iris Reticulata |
 |
| Early red Helleborus |
 |
| Galanthus Nivalis |
 |
| Later blue reticulata |
 |
| One scilla and one anemone blanda |
 |
| And this glorious little purple reticulata again. |
Lots of things are showing promising shoots. A deer ate a whole clump of tulip shoots a few days ago but tulips, daffodils, LOTS more later hellebores, SCADS of scilla ( bane of DH's existence! Many live in the lawn !!), lilies, zillions of hostas, hemerocallis- you name it. It is all coming up! Spring, it appears, is here! Oh, and the greenish winter goldfinches, are now becoming noticeably lemon yellow with black velvet wings. The magnolia is under strict instructions to COOL IT! Last year, it got frozen off after opening too early.
On that cheery note, I wish you all the many blessings of Easter 2013 and hope you have a lovely weekend.
