A patch of wild violets are happy blooming beneath the Rosa Rugosas in by side yard.
Wild violets #2
Many gardeners regard violets as weeds. Not me! They remind me of happy childhood days. :)
Red tulips
Yes, that's a birdbath that needs to be put back together and filled with water. OK, I'll do it TODAY. (Don't worry, we also have a larger birdbath fairly close to this one.)

Every morning lately, this guy serenades everyone in the yard. He's soooo happy!
Please visit Michelle at Rambling Woods for more NATURE NOTES.

Yes, I had someone tell me that if I kept on dividing and planting my native violets they'd spread everywhere ... ha ha, that was exactly what I was wanting!
ReplyDeleteThey popped up amongst the grass and even dealt with being mowed. They are the sweetest little plants and I just love your photos of them :D)
The wold violets are such a gorgeous colour, I would be very happy to have them in my garden :) The robin is a delight.. I think your garden must be quite a haven for the birds EG.
ReplyDeleteI love the wild Violets. I have some blooming at the Victoria House--- --not officially in Stanwood but up in the woods about 10 miles from Stanwood. and since I have met Bob I spend time between his house--called the Rose House--and my Victoria House. Sounds elegant but it isn't. Anyway--love your images.
