Spring in the Garden

Spring is such a pretty time in our garden. My husband works hard at it and his efforts really show. When he retired about 4 years ago he thought it would take "2 or 3 months" to get all the little chores around the house done. We all know that is a never-ending process.

So, enjoy some Spring--I have to get back to "Secret Sewing"--you're going to love it when I can show it to you!

Knockout Roses, Iris, Dianthus

Waterlilies and Iris at the pond

First Water lily bloom of the season--the fish survived the winter, as they always do
I love Irises and have to stop my husband from tossing them out
The new Barn Block he made as a surprise for me, 4 foot square
Blackberry vines beginning to flower--July they are so good

A bed in the front yard

Welcome, come on in--oh, yes, not yet...
Let's quilt.

      Once the water warms up, I throw in a handful of food most days. They eat bugs and frog larvae so really don’t need to feed much. They are ordinary goldfish, not koi.
