The Garden is Growing!

 Since I last showed you shoots of Daffodils coming up through the snow, the garden has boomed!  We have bunches of Daffodils out front, and a few out back.  And work on the garden is getting underway.  More on that tomorrow.

The small kidney-shaped garden a round our two trees out front is just beautiful at the moment!

One lonely Dandelion showed up in the front lawn.  I like Dandelions, but this one didn't last long.

And a few Daffodils out back.  Daffodils mark spring at our place.

There are  other plants in bloom!  The Forsythia provides a bright splash of yellow in the corner of the garden.  Yellows seem to typify spring around here.

  1. You have beautiful Spring Gardens. The Forsythia is a beauty. The ones I watch for in town froze :(

  2. When I was a child I blew the dandelion fluffy top off and counted the numbers it took. That dark hyacinth, they are all beautiful but that is a new colour to me. Green thumb in spades, Mrs F.G.

  4. What lovely spring flowers in a beautiful setting.
    The forsythia never really bloomed around here this year. It came out with green leaves with just a few blooms. It was like that all over town!! Very unusual.

  5. Your statement of "Since I last showed you shoots of Daffodils coming up through the snow" tantalized me, so I went to "Older Posts" in the lower right of your webpage, and looked up the last post. My goodness, I was fluttering my eyelashes to the point that were cramping up!

  8. I like dandelions too. I've never thought of them as a weed. Nice to find someone else who feels the same way. :-)

  9. Lookin' good! My daffs are just opening up. Love the forsythia. I had to cut back and move mine last fall, but there are buds growing on the stumps....so next spring!

  11. The only yellow aka spring on our property is dandelions. My one little clump of daffodils didn't bloom although they tried. I'm afraid to put any more in in case it's just a disappointment.

  12. I love all of your colorful flowers, and I've always admired Mrs FG's gardening prowess and hard work. It always amazes me how one person can store so much gardening knowledge in their head. Good stuff.

  13. The poor dandelion must be lonely. Mrs. F. G. would be appalled at our lawn, it's full of dandelions both flowers and seedheads -- the neighbors who have lawn services and have banned dandelions must grimace every time they pass our place -- but the chipping sparrows that eat dandelion seeds get a good meal.
