My garden today...

My tiny snowball bush

the peonies will be in bloom soon

blooms on the horse chestnut tree

an iris blooming now

Sensation lilac

This is how the garden looks as of today. The trees are done blooming except this Horse chestnut. I love the blooms on this tree. It blooms for quite along time and is right at the top of the drive for everyone to enjoy. When I was working in the garden today, I saw someone pull over and start taking pictures. Maybe this tree caught their eye. The beds are looking fuller now and a lot greener, thanks to all the rain we have been blessed with. There are a few things blooming now, but in about ten days there will be a riot of color in the beds. Because of all the rain, I haven't been able to get out and weed the beds like I would like to. Today I made up for lost time. I went out very early to work in it and quit about 4:30. It was a little chilly so Landon had to stay in the house. Which meant I had to go in every few minutes to check on him. He cannot be left alone for any length of time, so in that amount of time I still didn't get as much done as I could have had hubs been home to watch him. But any day in the garden is a good day.
