What the heck spring? The month has been all over the weather map. Cold, rainy, hot, sunny, hail, freezes, and the plants can’t keep up! Spring was not sprung in our neck of the woods. It kinda limped in, left and then returned. Even now, in the first week of May, it’s dreary. Where is out bight spring blooms? Already gone, missed them, it’s over. There were some good plant observations but everything felt stunted.
So many petals!
Love those rain droplets.

What is this fiery shrub??
Lovely lichen.
River bed.

In the beginning of the month, our front bed was blooming…
…but by then end, it had been trampled by the roofers. At least we have a new roof.
How was your April? Was the weather cooperating with you? Was it what you wanted and hoped for?
