It's Tuesday

 It's Tuesday


 Weird and wonderful Frank:


Do you think he's trying to tell us it's time to take the winter plastic off the porch?

In the garden: 

The first spring Iris.

Starter plants.


I've discovered Etsy has starter plants.  This is a little Tea Olive Dwarf Shrub. It's pretty tiny. I may be on my next cycle of life before it reaches maturity.


Hellebore. 

Hardy Hibiscus. Another little guy.

Dwarf lilac.


The hosta is springing up and the violets are in take over mode.

I've been pulling wild onions out of the garden and smell like a particularly aromatic salad:(

The kitties memorial garden.


 


 



That's all folks:)

You call it ketchup and I think English people do too, but here we call it tomato sauce. It seems like your garden will soon be very lush.

Beautiful spring blooms!

CJ Kennedy said...

Frank always has me laughing. He is such a clever and cunning guy. I can't show this to Bleubeard, or he will get ideas.

My tulips are blooming, but my iris won't bloom for at least another week or so. Maybe longer. However, my hibiscus is history, or nearly so. And my hostas are also starting to emerge. I truly love your kitty garden, dear.

Here's hoping for a growth spurt:)
The plastic will be down soon. Very soon.....;)

Sandra Cox said...

Interesting. Here we've got ketchup, tomato sauce and tomato paste. All different products.
Hoping you are right about a lush garden.
Take special care.

Frank clearly has a mind of his own! I love the memorial garden. It's beautiful. I think you'll have a most grand garden very soon -- it already has a great start!

Sandra Cox said...

Shhh.Don't let Frank hear or it will go to his head:)
Tulip season is pretty much over here. Hibiscus can be finicky can't they, dear Elizabeth?

Sandra Cox said...

PS I'm glad you like the kitty garden:)
