Another Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood


What a morning! What a day! 


The crab apple is bursting with pink...


'That tree' - the view blocker -- has covered itself with silver-green...


Even the weeds -- wild onion and purple deadnettle --  are decorative...


 At the pond, the Osage orange and the Oriental magnolia are putting on a show...


And back at the house, it's time to venture on a few geraniums (perlargoniums) for the porch...


I love the way the little buds hang their heads till it's their turn to bloom.

I'd say your geraniums have humility. they let the bloom perform and they wait heads down for their opportunity. Lovely blooms all over yur place! -- barbara

Lovely scenes in your "hood" Vicki! Does the Osage Orange have any scent like FL orange trees, which may be blooming about now.
