Garden Blooms


I took a few pictures around the front yard of the blooming Rhododendrons (I think that's what these are, yes?) the other day, before all this rain started to fall. The yard is just awash in pink because it's everywhere, and I love it! 

These and the birch trees just make me so happy :)

Look! Tulips!

Another hyacinth! I didn't see this one till it was starting to fade because it's on the other side of the front yard, and I can barely see it amongst all the daffodils.

Speaking of daffodils... sigh :)

Driving up to or past the house always brings a smile to my face.

I'm not much of a gardening type, but I'm always amazed at how plants just pop back up after a long, difficult winter to greet you with cheeriness. Can't wait to see what else we have in store!

Gorgeous! Considering it snowed here twice in the past week I'm not expecting any blooms for awhile. But they'll be other people's blooms - can't garden to save my life. lol.

Your yard is lovely, and you're so lucky to have those beautiful birch trees. I love finding all the flowers you expect every spring...and all the ones that are surprises :)
