April Showers

 April Showers Bring May Flowers, 

or April Showers Bring April Flowers

Here are some photos of April flowers around the yard this week.

Grape hyacinth


The sunshine and warm temperatures brought out the bees.


While some daffodils have faded, others are in full bloom.


This is a first time bloom for these. I planted the bulbs from a friend several years ago and they have only shown anemic growth of the leaves. What a special treat to find these blooms.


Wallflower


Violets


The peas have finally come up. Time to put the garden fence up before the rabbits find them.


Our little apple tree is blooming.


As well as one the bigger apple trees.
However, we have never gotten more than an apple or two from it.


The cherry tree is blooming, but the wind is causing its blossoms to rain down.


Another daffodil.


The phlox is in full bloom.

Are April showers bringing April showers where you are?

Until next time...
