SPRING?


Is spring here now? Things are blooming here in Texas!
I week ago Axel & I planed some kale seeds, we had several warm days, but also cool ones. But yesterday I spied baby plants.
I love my Tulip Magnolia. It's by my back door and starts spring with large fuchsia blooms. It then gets leaves and then blooms again in the fall.
I've been planting tulips in the front planters for the last several years. Tulips are so cheerful they make me smile whenever I see them. The neighbors often stop to say how they enjoy them too.
It's amazing how one day there is nothing but bare twigs and branches on the plum tree, then the next it's full of blossoms. Bees were going crazy in them. I hope we have yummy plums again this year.
