Today in the garden, signs of spring!
In no particular order, from the front of the house, there are double Japanese Kerria (clambering up the chestnut tree), cydonia japonica (Japanese quince), a few daffodils that eluded the raspy slug tongues, the russian plum (Komet of Kubansk)… this is the front yard.
In the back, one trillium has a bud (and two more are “up” but not yet producing any buds, let alone flowers), the red huckleberries (vaccinium parvifolium) are lacy with new new leaves and small green berries are already forming — how did I miss their bloom time? I will post pictures of the back yard a little later. For now, we have an early Spring, and (some) planting is going to happen this weekend!
And one picture from no-longer-in-the-garden… few slug-free blooms to brighten our living space!
