Today in my Garden

Ferns unfurling.

Creatures visiting.

Borage blooming.

Dandelion looking dandy.

Hardy Geraniums invading.

Aquilegia looking pretty.

Glossy foliage gleaming.

Fluffy clouds floating.

Camelia showing off!

Ivy creeping.

Rhubarb for the taking.

Gizmo dozing. Edited: There are more garden images over at Mutant Trees!

    We've had a weekend trying to improve the garden. Things here are quite behind where you live Simone. My aquilega aren't anywhere near opening any flowers yet. I think Gizmo has the best idea...lazing in a sunny spot. Your garden is looking lovley already.

    It has been a glorious day in the garden hasn't it? Lovely photos - our aquilegias are no where near as forward as yours - we had a crumble with rhubarb out of the garden today:)

    You took great photos, Simone...but I guess, as much as I love flowers, I am partial to your photo of little old Gizmo stretched out on the garden bench soaking up the spring sunshine. He sure looks cozy! Thanks for sharing all these wonderful pictures!

    oooooooh your garden is just radiant with colour isn't it? I love the picture of your cat, indeed he is almost identical to my sister's except her moggy, Chivers - I think he looks very content!

    Lovely inspiring post, thankyou

    With love

    Lovely garden photos. I have to live vicariously by the photos of others as we still have snow where I live in Canada. Thanks for sharing them.

    I LOVE all these photos Simone! I'm even wondering if I can use your ladybug photo for my desktop? It's my favorite out of this group!In fact I know someone else who would like this one too. I'll have to let her know!.. Of course I always love the photos of Gizmo too! It's good to see him enjoying Spring with the rest of us!! (0:
