April Showers Bring May Flowers

Nicole art + photography flowers, nature, photography, spring

Spring took its time arriving this year. The leaves have finally popped, and the flowers are just starting to bloom. We are several weeks “behind” (though it’s not as though Spring follows a schedule) so it’s been lovely to finally see the garden coming up in the past couple of weeks.

These are tiny yellow and white tulips- only a few inches tall, and they were the first to come up!

I don’t have much to say today. I was looking forward to getting into blogging regularly again and had a schedule planned, but then hit a bump in the road health-wise which has slowed me down quite considerably for the past week. Thankfully, I am now on the road to recovery, and at last able to put down some words and edit some photos! I’ve also been thinking a lot lately about different fashion related topics. I haven’t written up any posts lately, but am hoping to get some thoughts down on paper soon, and be able to bring you some more blog posts, like back in the “old days” of this blog. (haha- only a couple of years ago, but time does fly!)

I hope you are doing well, and happy weekend everyone!

I wish you could smell this iris- it has the sweetest scent!

Nanking Cherry with such a pretty pink bloom, 

These tiny little violets came up in the lawn- so adorable. And hens and chicks on the right.

These tiny white flowers are a weed, but so pretty! Each bloom is only about 3-4mm across.

These tiny yellow cinquefoil flowers also came up in the grass- so cute. Right: don’t you love new leaf green?

My favourite plum tree, just covered in beautiful, sweet blooms this year!

More plum blooms, and False Spirea leaves on the right. 

Bog Rosemary- such a cool pink flower!

Elephants Ears on the left and Bethlehem Sage on the right. 

Some tiny, baby, oak leaves to finish it off.
