Spring Photos

Just as it was last year, this blog is about the garden photos. I've tried to get a bit more of the variety in my garden, which changes from day to day. The daffodils are out in full force, and the tulips are just starting. There won't be any magnolia photos from my garden this year, although I have seen other people's trees that are blooming.

I've got some interesting purples in the garden right now. My mom had pulled some bulbs out of her garden and was about to throw them away, so I took them home and planted them in my garden. I'm not sure exactly what they are, but I think they are a type of fritillaria.

I Think These Are Fritillaria?



Close Up of the Flowers



Right next to these is a hosta that is just starting to sprout. I like the little purple jackets on the leaves, and how they come up in a circle.



And still on the purple theme, here are those purple hyacinths with a background of 'Saybrook Gold' juniper.



Oh, and some photos showing the life cycle of a pasque flower.

Finally, another view of my favourite spring garden bed.
