The 2024 Garden Year
January 19, 2024 January Our year started with snow, ice and frigid temperatures in mid-January. Our temperatures stayed below freezing for almost a week. I think it was the most consistent cold that we've experienced since moving here. Fortunately, it was a dry snow so there wasn't too much damage. Once again, we almost lost the azara and I'm afraid there would have been some breakage if I had not kept knocking the ice off. February 14, 2024 February In past years, it seems that inclement weather seems to hit around Michael's birthday in mid-February. After the January snow and ice, this month was actually quite tame. Nothing exciting to report - mostly birdwatching . Early flowers like hellebores, cyclamen and crocus begin to bloom in mid month. March 3, 2024 March I got into a walking routine which I'm happy to report I am continuing this year. You get to the point where you feel guilty if you miss a day.

Happy 4th of July Phillip. Your red white and blue choices are perfect for a patriotic theme. I love the way the nicotiana is flirting with Pan peeking over his shoulder.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you did this. It took five hours to appear on my blog list. We need to celebrate the good things today. Blue was the hardest color for me to find, mostly found in the sky color (didn't post it.)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty: your flowers are worth celebrating.
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are beautiful! Love that you shade blue flowers to add to this post. They are hard to find.
