The Garden . . .

In December, we fill pots with evergreen clippings

The garden looks like winter!

But they get tired come February

and so we take out the evergreen

and sow lettuce seeds.

We're rewarded . . .

Come April

With our own pots of fresh lettuce to pick for dinner . . .

I love the grape hyacinths -- muscari

They'll spread like weeds if you let them . . . and we'll let them!

We pick wee bouquets and fill tiny blue and white Asian pots or wee Waterford vases

But we like big hyacinths, too

And these pink ones are especially pretty

And smell especially fragrant!

And in the "herb" garden . . .

The rhubarb is up and growing

With the rhubarb pots keeping watch

With the new English bird table, the rhubarb forcers and a teutur,

the garden, I think, looks like an English garden!

And on the statue . . ..

A crown!

Of birds and flowers

She deserves it!

It is Saturday and I'm sharing The Garden with Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday.
