Does anyone else inspect their plants and flowers following a trip away? I'm always excited, and sometimes anxious, about what awaits me in the garden at this time of year. I just returned to a few beautiful blooms and several flowers awaiting their triumphant presentations. Although a winter girl at heart, spring certainly makes me smile with its everchanging landscapes.
i've missed you my quiet garden space in mere days you've grown in leaps and blooms.
checking each shrub and plant and flower i see how busy you've been and are.
feeders and baths newly refilled delighted birds sense the promise of lush summer living.
warmer air tugs around tall, strong stems encoraging a peak at the colorful wardrobe of spring.
inspired by these promises of hollyhock, yarrow, purple coneflower, and hydrangea.
This time of year, being stuck inside for a couple rainy days means we face lots of new changes outside. We don’t specifically check but are often surprised. I like your photos.
I inspect the flowers and bushes and trees in a casual way almost every day when I go to get the mail. However, I don’t know that I’ve ever gone on vacay and then deliberately checked the garden. Probably should do that, huh?

Thanks, Dan. Lots of rain this week, so there is no poking around the flowers until later.

When I left town last week, my peonies were on the cusp of blooming so I knew gifts were waiting.

I inspect mine often and more often find myself weeding instead of gardening 😁 Nice photographs!

Oh yes, the weeding. I did a bit of this as well. My least favorite chore of all time! Thanks for reading me today.
