More blooms...finally!

Category: Daily notes | Posted: Fri Apr 25, 2008 11:42 pm

It's been such a busy last couple weeks. I've hardly had time to check the stew and make a few comments. I really wanted to post some more pics, but just couldn't find the time.

Well, I'm finding it now. DD#2 is down on the couch watching TV and DH is on his way home from work, which means I finally get a few minutes to myself.

I was out and about in the garden today and took a few pics to share.

My hyacinths are in bloom along with my daffys. You can also see my magnolia (rikki) in this one and my lilys that are coming up. Please don't look at the dead stuff I haven't had time to clear yet. I'm working on it, but it's coming slower than I want.


More daffys and hyacinths. The tree looking things are my drawf lilacs. They sit right in front on my farmers porch in front of the kitchen. In May when they bloom I can smell them in the house when the windows are open. Ahhhh!


I took these hoping someone would know why my hyacinths don't produce the flowers around the whole stem. Some of them do, but some of them don't. They were like this since I've had them. I think it's weird.



These I took this past Wed. while at the beach with DD#2. The beach is my favorite place, 2nd to my garden.



Everyone have a great day. :)

Great pics! Those flowers really are cheerful as well as beautiful. I don´t mind the dead stuff. It is important to lerave it until it´s good and safe to remove it because it protects your soil as well as new growth of the perinnals. Your place is looking tremendous. Congrats, you.

Lovely photos, both flowers and beach look great to me. I never manage to get the planned chores done either, no matter what. I guess I just plan on getting too much done in one day. I've tried hyacinths outside. They do well the first spring, and then they slowly dwindle and disappear, so I've given up on them. Thanks for sharing yours.
