Blitheworld looks gorgeous! I’m sad to see the tree blooms go by (especially the Japanese Magnolias, but remember how long we’ve been looking for spring and those first shoots pushing through the cold cold ground? It was astonishing to have full on leaves on the tree over our porch, which seem to have come on in just 1 week. And yes, I have such a tiny garden, but I manage to be out in it for 3 days straight & am whipped tired. Now that it’s Monday & time to go back to work, I need a nap.

Thanks, Lynn- It is gorgeous here and so amazing to see so much activity after such a long winter. And I need a nap too – any time I sit I totally lose momentum! -kris

You have been busy! I would be out there planting too, but 57 and rainy is just not pleasant enough for me. Then again my entire garden is probably the size of the potager, so there’s really no rush, lol.

Heather, Sometimes it’s more fun to just do a little planting at a time – whenever the time feels right. And one of the biggest bennies of a small garden is not having to feel frantic about getting it all done! -kris

We have all been busy haven’t we? Not in the garden though and time is running out for cleanup. Please send the deadheads! Love the chorus line shot and all the other interesting blooms! I have been whining about the heat but right now, warm with wet, it is just about perfect.

Layanee, the Deadheads will be right over – as soon as they’re done in my garden… might be a while… The gray skies aren’t so bad – colors are popping. I saw a lot of happy photographers on the property today! – kris
