The winter snow melted and the weather warmed up. Finally I see the early spring arrivals. These pictures were all from the first few days of spring.

First Iris of the Season
This is the first of my irises to bloom this season. Last fall, I dug them all up and separated them, and gave most away. I made sure to keep some of the “grapies” and some of the “mauves”. I only got two stalks so far and both are grapies, but the mauves usually are a couple weeks behind, so we will see if I get any mauves.
How the garden grows
Spring shows all the work I did last year. In the front yard, top left, you see the dark red transplanted maple, the transplanted hydrangea just in front of the maple on the left, and the peonies that mom sent last fall. All the other picture are the back yard. In the back yard, the landscaping was done last April. I added plants throughout the summer. I planted the daffodils last fall. Come summer we will see all the daylilies I planted on the hill below the daffodils.
