Yesterday I cleaned up branch debris on the road, pruned along the road, pruned in the bed under the living room windows, raked up the sweet gum tree seed balls once again, and dumped it all in the compost area. That was after we got back from a brunch with Anna and Gardner in NYC.
Tomorrow we go to the UK for a week of driving around Cornwall and looking at quaint.
New blooms: quince, apple, boxwood.
Quince, a shrub usually with a red flower, but in white resembles the other fruits.
Grape hyacinth is a cluster of little bells, another spring ephemera.
Apple resembles quince above and pear below.
Boxwood is an evergreen shrub with inconspicuous flowers.
Pear has been out for a while. Pear and apple are trees, of course, as is the Yoshino cherry I showed a few weeks ago.
