My Garden

I spent a little time in my garden last evening. I had a little work to do with regards to the snail population in my gardens. One day, my little plant is beautiful, the next it's mutilated by snails. I wasn't about to let them come around for dessert. So, I sprinkled a little snail and slug killer around my plant and all around all my plants and this morning I went out to see what snails I caught. Twenty one to be exact, and ten of them were around this one. Ha! Take that plant killers!

And while I was out there, I couldn't help but use my camera to capture the little beauties in my garden. When we bought this house, everything was still dead from winter, so this spring has been enjoyable to watch and see what our yard had to offer.


This tree (pictured below) has got to be my favorite! And I am quite pleased that it sits right outside Madeline's window. Because what little girl wouldn't like to open her window and see a PINK tree!

And the rest are our roses, lots of lovely colors:








It's nice to know that when the tulips are gone, there is still beauty to behold!
