Sunny Promises

Looks like it’s going to be a great day.. with only a few drizzles in the weekend forecast! Hooray! I hope all you Mom’s out there have a wonderful day. I’m off to my fave nursery to pick up my hanging baskets. 😊

Budding Up

Finally!!! My lilacs are finally beginning to swell up. With all the rains we have been having I think they are going to be spectacular this year. 😊

Eagle Eyes

N.H. Quince

Lovely quince readying to flower

When I moved to Maine from N.H. I brought with me 150 perennials to plant here. These salmon quince made the list. Needless to say, I not only delight in the gorgeous salmon-pink display each Spring, but also the hummers adore it, and its shelter for the chickadees, finches, and even the wrens. May Day was my birthday and for the first in many years that I can recall… we never saw the sun. These flowering quince outside my kitchen window was indeed a cheerful sight to celebrate the day.

And then in the fall I’ll make jars and jars of quince jam until I run out of jars.. we enjoy it so much here.

Pretty snazzy… in spite of all the heavy rains.

When Will It End

A little peek of color this morning… just the wrong color! Ugh! More rain today. This wet system is not helping my schedule one darn bit! Though I did hear it whispered it’s suppose to be in mid seventies next week. Halleluliah!
