April 3rd and it is already 90 degrees. This is not a good sign of what's to come this summer. Spring is in bloom or starting to bloom. Here are a few pictures I took in the garden this week.
It is extremely dry here, oh my we need some rain. I have start running the drip irrigation in the potager. The peonies are in bud, soon to be in full bloom.
The bleeding heart is blooming. I just love this flower.
For the last 2-3 weeks the red bud trees have been blooming.
The chives are starting to bloom.
This is a Oak leaf Hydrangea that is just starting to leaf out.
Ajuga is a very low growing perennial ground cover that blooms each spring.
The Japanese Maple leaves are crimson red (Go Sooners) and yes that is frost on the leaves.
It is amazing a plant can survive when the weather increases or decreases by 40 degrees in 1 day!
Until next time,
