it is always interesting when I see memories of the garden come up…

this one was from six years ago…

there were lots more ferns and the virginia creeper (which is also known as woodbine) hadn’t filled up the entire wall of the garage… I had a hanging basket and the same bird feeder…

this is a photo I took today of the same area…

you can see that the virginia creeper has filled in completely, but also that most of the ferns have been moved… although it is the same bird feeder, it now has a plastic bottom as the original metal one rusted through…

fun to see the changes over time…

a very quiet day…

slow to rise and made french toast with the last of the whole wheat bread…

watched a few morning shows and then headed out to the garden…

planted the last of the flowers still in the garage and spent time reading…

have not seen a single bird today, but I did get a few nice photos…

happy with this great shot of the ferns which are growing so quickly…

the poppies are getting closer and closer to opening and I check them out every morning…

I also cut some lily of the valley for the bedroom… they have finally opened and the scent is lovely…

things are really growing in the garden…

and I don’t just mean the dandelions and grass, sigh…

the ferns are growing by leaps and bounds…

the lily of the valley are starting to bloom… they smell lovely, but they don’t like to stay in one spot… if I was starting a garden I would only put them in a place where they are surrounded by concrete…

and the clematis is happily climbing up the trellis…
