The weather is moderating here so I have spent some time outside cleaning up the gardening pots. Pansies blooming nicely, bumper crop of lettuce - yummy. Some spring bulbs are sending up flower stalks, others none at all. Think I’ll pull all of them up in the fall and freshen the soil. The rose bushes are loaded with buds and will bloom sometime this week. The lavender is a pleasant surprise. It is blooming profusely in this bright, indirect light!
I love the smell of lavender, lilac, and hyacinth. I don’t have much in the way of flowers though. Just a small bed in the front yard.
