Tulips, iris, daffodils, and any day now- peonies! The tulips are fading and some were eaten by passing deer, so now I look forward to the peonies.
The aromas that the peony brings are simply heavenly! It is one of my favorites, next to the lilac. I adore gardenia as well, but can't grown them well here in Utah. Maybe I just haven't positioned it in the right location; maybe I'll try again this year. I am heading out today to do some more weeding and I look forward to planting veggies soon too (after Mother's Day)! My father-in-law made us a beautiful new planter box and I'm excited to have some fresh veggies again this year! Get outdoors and put a few new plants in, even if it's not your "gig", you'll be sure to enjoy the fruits of your labor! It feels good to take in some fresh air and feel the dirt under your fingernails!
