I hope this post warms someone in the cold up a tad.
Oh how beautiful! Thank You!

Nothing blooming here yet in the way of Flowers. The Willows and Maples are the only ones showing tiny Buds, so far.

Last Spring, all my Fruit Trees were in Full Bloom, then a terrible Frost came around Easter, and killed everything. I had all of 5 Apples, no Pears, no Cherries, no Plums...was sad. The previous year, we had so many Apples and Pears & Cherries, we hauled wagon fulls to Neighbors and Friends, and the Horses got more than their fair share too.

*Fingers crossed* that Mama Nature is kinder this Spring!

The Dogwoods are starting to bust out. (Sorry about the quality of these pics...it's been overcast and windy.)



The woods are full of Redbuds blooming. I wish this pic was better...they are brillant fuschia.

How did I miss this post? My bad! I have one Jasmine sambac (the tea Jasmine), and I love the aroma. Mmmmm..

A little overcast here too...although the sun peeked through yesterday, not during this pic.


This might look nicer with a little spring green, or nice fall foliage.


Thankfully, it isn't far from my house...I'll have to go back in the fall.
