Pink dogwood tree

Back to the archives, from April. My birthday, in fact. I love the big pink dogwood tree in my backyard, next to the magnolia tree not quite blooming yet.

Hardy fuchsia macro

Yesterday I went outside to bring in all the plants that needed to come in ahead of the arctic weather we’re having right now, and took a few minutes to enjoy the bright sunshine and the last, last flowers blooming.

Red and purple hardy fuchsia flowers still blooming in November.

Yellow alstroemeria

From the archives. These yellow alstroemeria flowers, or Peruvian lilies, are wonderful even if they have no scent, and very long lasting in a bouquet. Very easy to grow, too.
