Friday's Moment

I swear I am going to get better at this timing thing again! This was the first bloom of the season that I totally missed. It was a single crocus about a mile from the house, in the furthest garden bed. By the time I saw it, it was this little dried up thing that a dog has clearly stepped on!

More blooms...

 

The tarda are opening and if you were to judge my reliability by this blog, I would come out looking bad.... so don't! lol!

This is yesterday's image that I forgot to post before I fell asleep!

Second Bloom of the Season

 

Tulip 'Chopin', blooming today. I missed the lone Crocus bloom about a mile from the house. Going to post a dried up picture of it on sleepy hollow.

Blooms

The only blooms I can find are in Judy's garden!

Winter Again

See what I mean? Winter is back in zone 3. Cold enough today for icicles to form. Plants are still hanging on out there though.

Snow Day

This was yesterday's photograph but it could have been from today. Both days were the same. Today was a little colder and little less snow but equally grey!

Delphinium and Jenny

 

All the groundcovers are coming up but the delphinium are among only a few perennials starting to show up. This creeping jenny and delphinium pair are next to Benedict in the sideyard.

Tulips and Dandelions

The Zurel are the first tulips coming up along the drive in the sun gardens. The garden is starting to fill up with tulips and dandelion. They are both everywhere! I really need to get outside and deal with the dandelion.

Tick Season Starts!

 

...and so it begins! Ugh!!!

Summer's Days

 

What do you know, it is before midnight and I am posting an outside, daylight photo. That must mean I am caught up! Summer, using the rocks for a pillow and hanging out with Hannah. +5 here today and the snow is almost all gone again. I hope it stays that way because I noticed dandelions in the garden. I need a warm afternoon to deal with them. The little green patch sticking up between the rocks turned out to be tarda. They also turned out to be in the circle beside the rhubarb. I don't have a great eye for distance from the window I guess.
