My Spring Garden!

Oh, the wonders of Spring!
As soon as I see the first flower raise its head above the
ground in spring, my heart leaps with anticipation.





Did you know Tulips are native to Turkey and western Asia.
They have been grown in gardens for centuries.
Thousands of hybrids have been introduced.



Some of the ground covers are popping up.



The weeping cherry blossoms are so delicate.


Oh the daffodils, cheery as any early bloomer, glow yellow or
creamy, their smiling faces seeking the sun
and praising springs revival!



There are so many variety of tulips and colors.



The flowering Quince is so rich in color.
You do have to be careful because of the thorns.




This tree has beautiful white flowers with a fragrance that
is heavenly and then turns burgundy for the summer.

I love the blossoms of crab apple trees.


Pretty soon the Oriole will be back
for his grape jelly!


Come and visit again!
