Walk Around the House

No oomph today, so let's just walk around the house to see what we might see.

 
I haven't been paying attention - look the elderberry is leafing out!

And in our new lawn, lots of wild mustard is blooming.

'Jetfire' Daffodils

Primrose - 'Hose in Hose'

Daffodil

 Primrose - 'Hose in Hose'

A nice trifecta - hellebore, dicentra, and trillium.

Close up of the Bleeding Heart (dicentra)

Well named Trillium 'Volcano'

A trio of podophyllums look other-worldly as they erupt up from the earth.

A frilly primrose

Primrose

A hybrid trout lily (erythronium). 

A couple of natives - super excited as they are inside the deer fence and should do well this year. A tiger lily amidst a field of bleeding hearts.  

Bleeding Heart

I wish you could smell this Daphne!

Daffodil 'Snipe'

I'm hoping that when this current is in full bloom, I'll be able to take photos of all the hummingbirds fighting over this plant.

Hope you enjoyed today's abbreviated walk.

It must be so nice to have spring! It is freezing here in Massachusetts. Thanks for sharing such lovely photos.

What a delightful walk! The trout lily looks a bit like a butterfly wing.

Your walk may have been short on distance, but was certainly long on beauty! Enjoyed seeing all your flowers and plants.
