All in a day
Thursday, April 24, 2008 at 03:30PM
I left the house around 12:30 for Bible Study at Dorothy's house. Just got home a little bit ago and in those three, short hours, it seems as though every tree on every corner is competing with every other tree on every other corner to see who can make the most leaves fastest!
It is an amazing transformation! As I walked up the cobblestone walk to Dorothy's back door, I noticed her pink bleeding hearts were blooming already and her white ones were just beginning to form buds. By the time I left, the white bleeding hearts were, well not just buds, but heart shaped blooms.
My own myrtle and pachysandra are now blooming and I found a dandelion.
Yes, today was wake up day for all the late bloomers.
Sigh. . .spring at last!
in Spring

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm jealous of your dandelion.
It is amazing! Yesterday I started out on a walk and by the time I finished, even my allergies were in full bloom! (but even they are welcome, if they mean spring)
My bleeding hearts aren't blooming yet, but my tulips and daffodils are quite nice.
yeah! you have dandelions already...(yes i"m odd I LIKE dandelions). I have my daffodils flowering and my tulips in my hot spot are flowering, and the rest are showing their colours. Isn't spring grand? :)
We've had a 'riot' of color in our front yard for several weeks now, yet I welcome each and every 'late bloomer' with the same awe and appreciation!
