Forget-me-nots

These little blue and yellow flowers are well named. You cannot forget them because they will always return to your garden, forever. So pretty in springtime, but then out they must go.

Two fruit trees

Both trees are five-grafts; the one on the left is has cherries and on the right, plums. We are looking at my yard towards my neighbors’, behind the fruit trees. Which version do you prefer? Happy Spring!

Tulips emerging

There was a sunbreak recently (a very Seattle thing) and I went outside to work in the garden. The bulbs are starting! Behind the tulip sprouts are bluebells starting up.

Amaryllis stamens

I think the white part is the anther. See the post a couple down from here to view this flower.

Amaryllis indoors

I’ve had good luck with getting some red amaryllis to rebloom. I treat them like houseplants and give them summers outside on the sunny patio. The geraniums behind it do well that way, too.
