Garden this spring

leave a comment »

Perhaps it was all that surprise winter rain, the garden this spring is an unplanned luxury. Very like an unplanned bouquet – buds go into a jar one evening and and you wake up to an arrangement in the morning.
These climbing roses are rather ephemeral, but while they last, they perfume the world around them.
A quiet spot to contemplate under a heritage oak tree.
Front setback is trying to keep the busy world outside at bay. The buddhist prayer flags help remind of a brief sojourn in Ladakh, a long time in the past. They bring peace.

The dogwood and iris are partners. They bloom together and iris litter the floor of the dogwood tree.

A row of small succulents are growing in a narrow patch between the fence and the driveway.

Hummingbirds seem to love these! This succulent is a gift from a dear friend. We almost lost this one during the standing water of winter rains.

An unplanned salsify plant. Apparently the roots are edible!
