The Wet, Wet Garden

After worrying about the rain deficit (we were below normal for April), Mother Nature generously rewarded us with an abundance of rain this past week. I am not going to complain although I do wish it would skip my off-days. Today (Saturday) is an especially wet day. I ventured out briefly and took a few shots. The plants grow so fast from the rain.

Happy Earth Day


Looking out from the front stoop - Japanese Maples 'Skeeter's Broom' at left, 'Murasaki Kiyohime' at bottom 'Shaina' on the bottom right, and 'Sango Kaku' at top right. In the background is the Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus 'Fastigiata').


The most popular rhododendron at the moment - 'Oceanlake' -



The pink dogwood that came with the house -
More tulips - this one looks nice with the rose 'Lady Emma Hamilton' in the background.

    Lots of beautiful color. The J Maples are quite nice in this setting. Love the rose foliage too.
