A Walk in the Garden

It is a beautiful day here, so I grabbed my phone and took some photos of our garden. The quality isn't quite as good as with my normal camera, but come for a walk with me anyhow. Everything is a beautiful color of green right now.

 I love the color of the Siberian Iris.  I wish they lasted a little longer!

 I picked three peonies to have inside.  They are so full and beautiful and smell lovely.

I hope that you have something blooming where you are too!
Thanks for stopping by!

Beauty In My Garden

Right now my gardens are filled with aquilegia (columbine). They seed themselves everywhere and I just love the surprise when they pop up in unexpected places! The colors are so beautiful. Some hang down and are sort of ruffled.Some face up. They grow in profusion at the side of our house.

I think they look like God painted each one individually. I hope you enjoyed looking at the beauty in my garden today!

What To Do?

I am sitting at my computer having a mug of tea. (I just noticed that you can see a bit of the table where I am sitting and my mug of tea in the upper left corner of this photo.) I have a quilt that I have been working on and I have a bit of a deadline on it and I really should work on that today. But it's a beautiful day outside. Should I work on the quilt? Or go outside in the yard where there is lots needing to be done.

Things are blooming everywhere...

The azaleas are just beginning to open.

Flowers fill pots on the deck.

See the sunlight shining in through the door? I can't resist. The garden is calling me! I hope you are enjoying your day!

Thankful Thursday

I lived in Canada most of my life and now I live in North Carolina. I love to garden , so one of the things I love about living here is that the weather. Because of the milder weather the spring plants come up so much earlier than I am used to.

This is what was in bloom yesterday in my garden.

The following blogs will also be posting for Thankful Thursday. Take a minute to visit if you can.
