Welcome to my Garden in May............

Its been a very long time coming but the garden is waking up at last. May, and nothing planted yet. We are not supposed to plant till the end of May but most years I have stuff in by mid April. This year I haven't even finished the clean up yet. I am working on it though a little at a time. This old body needs exercise after the long winter basically vegging. So nice to be out in the air.
Its a miracle what a few days can do. A little rain and then a lot of sun yesterday got things going really well.

My Mini daffs are out and looking happy and I just love this one with all the petals.

Then there is the squirrels........Bud next door set his live traps and has captured and (he says) relocated two black ones. This guy pesters me every day, and sneaks up to see if I am looking before he gets into snacking

I sort of hope Bud does not capture him, he is a bit of a lad.

  1. pretty, pretty flowers. I love the daffodils all dripping with raindrops. Seeing the color come into the garden is one of the best parts of spring. Enjoy!

  2. Blue and yellow flowers are my favourites, the one with all the extra bits is very stunning.

  3. Your double daffodil is a beauty.
    I may be relocating a few squirrels myself this summer; they seem to breed like rabbits.
