Today is the vernal equinox - the first day of spring. My Hellebores have been blooming for two months now - not waiting for the day!

This wonderful Hellebore starts out pure white and ages to these wonderful colors. This one was a gift from a friend years ago. It starts blooming in December and continues through spring. What a delight!
Finally it seems there will be no more snow or cold weather! Our winter had a warm spell followed by unusually cold weather and many of my plants have suffered. I lost my lovely Rising Sun Redbud and it seems all of my lavender has died. Add to it all that the deer ate and it's sad but there's still a lot of beauty.
Coming into bloom now! I have 2 of these trees and this one is loaded with flowers. I'll get a picture of the tree when they fully open.
I got this little tree from a neighbor when she discovered several volunteers in her yard. I have it in a pot up on the deck so the deer can't eat it while it's still small. I have no idea which cultivar it is though there are several potential candidates. I love the red edges on the green leaves and the deep red stems.
All our other Japanese maples are red varieties so this really will stand out!

I lifted, divided and replanted all my Iris two years ago. Seems I lost some that I loved and I thought this little yellow was among them, but to my surprise it came back this year!!
More rain and thunderstorms today...hope for more sun soon!!

is going on when our president insults our neighbor and closest ally??? Not to mention all our other allies. I try to stay away from politics here but I am appalled and ashamed by what's happening.
I hope all my Canadian friends know that the majority of us do not share the opinions of the orange menace.
Looks like the Bluebirds and Chickadees are once again fighting over one of my nest boxes. The Bluebird nests are always pine needles and the Chickadee nests have moss and soft grass. I have seen the male Bluebird hanging around the box so will watch more closely to see who prevails. One year the Chickadees actually tossed all the Bluebird eggs out on the ground and pecked them open! Even with two boxes available, they still fight over one or the other!

Some new Hellebores in my yard. I have no idea what variety they are since the tags just listed Helleborus. But, since they were only $10 per pot at Trader Joe's I don't care!! I bought two pots and they started out white and are aging to this wonderful pink.

Amazing place, with also a beautiful Sanctuary, as you can see from the picture.
