Tulip close up

Last week it was sunny, briefly (pouring right now), and the tulips in my front yard put on a show.

Orange tulips and blue sky

We had one sunny, warm day. One. But it was perfection, and here in Seattle, everyone surely appreciated it. I went outside and my tulips were in full bloom.

Park bench in springtime

Here’s another image from the same Connecticut park as the scene below. Early spring is the sweetest season.

Spring pond scene

It was exactly at this time of year when I took this spring scene at a park in Connecticut. Isn’t it just the picture of spring?

Peace rose in summertime

This pretty late-afternoon scene of peace roses in my front yard was taken last July. Summertime and its roses is only a few short months away.

Primroses

The supermarket near me had a special on primroses, ten for $10, and I went for it. Multi-colored, long blooming, and sometimes they even return the following year—what’s not to like about primroses?

Old-fashioned forsythia

Plants have fashions like anything else, at least garden plants do. I don’t see too many people planting old-fashioned forsythia, but I don’t know why not. It blazes in such a flame of welcome color in the early spring.

Geraniums indoors

I have a south window in my living room, so I took some geraniums indoors last fall. Why not? Here they are in a sunbreak (that’s a Seattle term) last week, looking out at my backyard.

Photos from Peru

It’s travel weekend, here at Sara’s Fave Photos blog. The pictures below were taken in Peru by my cousin Aurora, the daughter of Sheila, who just went to Hawaii. Peripatetic family! I have never been to Hawaii, but I truly loved my visit to Peru many years ago.
