We waited a long time for Spring this year and although the heavy rains were welcome, they have made a lot of work in the garden Every vaguely sunny day I have been out weeding, cleaning up the remains of the bulbs, doing lawn edges and tidying after winter. Now Spring is here and almost gone and I still have to clean up the later bulbs, lay mulch, another weeding and a lot of Spring pruning. Nevertheless, despite the weeds, the garden has really put on a great display.
Early in Spring, the irises were really gorgeous
The prunus showed its Spring coat
The dogwood looked stunning
The crab apple looked like a bride in her lovely gown
The magnolia looked a dream
The tulips popped up among the bluebells
And the aquilegias came up all over the place
I do love the garden in Spring. Still more to come next time.

Lovely series Liz - I SO like those Aquilegias; don't see them much, so thank you for the reminder of their existence and such splendid specimens they are too!
