I’ve been up to the usual chores, pruning, weeding, etc.
Judy and I hosted Mothers Day with Alison, Dan, Lily, Steve, Maggie, Val and Lucy in attendance as well as Lily’s friend from Barcelona, Meara. We had a few hours outside before an afternoon shower.
New blooms: Carolina allspice, star-of-Bethlehem, mulberry, wild cherry, hybrid rhododendron.
Another hybrid rhododendron.
Star-of-Bethlehem is a spring flower that vanishes when it gets hot. It stands tall at four inches.
Wild cherry. All those flowers and buds will become fruit that the birds will gobble up.
Catbird in a dogwood, waiting for those cherries.
Carolina allspice has a distinctive aroma and this interesting flower. The flower reminds me of a wood carving for some reason.
