Day 4: Flowers




The flowers that we planted in the fall are coming up.  They are really beautiful.  We're super excited.  Cliff goes out every day to count the new ones.  More are coming up every week so hopefully we will have flowers on the hill outside of our window for many more days to come.


Out of all the different bulbs we planted these white ones have done the best by far.  Most of the bulbs we planted successfully came up despite the fact that Rudy races across this part of the yard at full speed with very little regard for our gardening efforts.  They have been in full bloom for almost two weeks and they are still looking really white and fresh.  I'm impressed.

 

While we didn't plant it, the rhododendron on the path to our cottage is in full bloom.  There are so many blooms on it that Cliff and I have to duck to walk past it.  It smells really nice too.  I think I might like rhododendrons which is good as they are everywhere around here.  

Flowers make me happy.
