Serene Scenery Sunday

Woo, everypup and everycat.  It's me, Dave.  Just a couple of things to show you in the way of new blooms in our garden this week.  First up - the last of our lilac varieties is blooming! Here's a look at them from off the upper deck:

Miss Kim Lilacs

 They surround the Purple Ash tree, along with some Purple Emperor Sedum and a Fountain Grass. Want another look at them? I'll stay up here on the deck and send Mom down the stairs; I've already had a lot of exercise today!

"I'll wait here, Mom; you run down the bazillion steps to the yard, OK?"

  

I'm sure she doesn't mind.    

Here's a more "normal" view of the lilacs, taken from down in the yard:

 

Aren't they pretty?

Oh!  And it's a relatively calm day, so let's have another go at the Yorktown Snowflower Tree!

Can you see the "snow" this time?  Cool, isn't it?

And while Mom is down there, here is a special effects photo of her favorite part of the garden:

There's not much in bloom up there right now, but the Zebra grasses are coming in, and so is the sedum.  Can you see Mom's watering can?  She just put in some Purple Coneflowers, so hopefully they'll come in this summer!

That's all I've got for you!  I hope our tour of the gardens gave you a little bit of serenity!

Luv,

Dave
