I haven't posted any pictures for a long time and my blog is looking very plain with the only content being text. These pictures are a couple of months old now but they are still beautiful. They are pictures of my garden in front of the unit we just moved out of. Last fall I planted some tulip and daffodil bulbs which grew into a magnificent display of Spring and birth of a new season. I was thrilled when the first plants started sprouting and even more when they started to bloom. It was perfect.
On Mother's Day, Laura went out and picked a bunch of them to give to Susan because they were all in full bloom. It was a splendiferous move to bring this floral life into our house because we had moved to our new unit at that point. It brought a "welcome home" feeling to the place.
When the tenants moved into our old unit, they worked on the garden right away and I asked if I could have my bulbs back, so she dug them up for me. She also gave me the hydrangea which was in the corner. Now I just have until October to do something with my present garden space (the time which I have to replant my bulbs). The hydrangea is sad because I keep forgetting to water it and the only other plant in my garden is an ugly, giant papas bush which takes up three quarters of the garden. I've been told that to dig up the papas that I'll need to get as much of it out that I can and then bleach what may remain of the roots to make sure that it doesn't come back. What a hassle, which is my biggest reason for not getting to it right away.
