A Walk Thru My Early Spring Garden

We had a bit of rain twice yesterday which made the grass grow about an inch and the green turn greener.  It also brought out a bit of color.
The first tulips are blooming.  I love their bright colors.

The Creeping Phlox near the moss beds are starting to fill out as well.

Our White Birches are filling with hangings blossoms before their leaves come out.

These trees near our front entrance are full of white blossoms, but no leaves yet.  I will have to learn what kind are these trees.

We have 2 beds of Rhododendrons and Hosta, but no blossoms on the Rhodos yet and the hosta are invisible just now.

A close-up of a Rhodo in another bed shows its full of green leaves, but no blossoms this early.

These pretty flowers are early each year.  They look like the fall Ceratostigmas I had but which were bright blue.  These are purple and flourish in early spring.

The weather today was in the 60sF and sunny but there is still a cold March wind blowing from the west today.  It makes for jacket weather and the shorts are in the closet.

Hope you had a fine day.
