Last year, I published a post each month on what was blooming (or not) in my flower bed. I'm going to expand on that a bit this year to include more of the gardens. I missed January but that's okay... nothing was growing.
 |
| The apricot tree was the first to blossom. Always. |
 |
| Followed within a few days by the peach tree. |
 |
| Chives in the vegetable/herb garden |
 |
| Beets and garlic. ...with some volunteer poppies and tulips popping up as well |
 |
| California poppies. I never noticed the red tipped leaves before. Cool! |
The trees are all still dormant. I'm going to track this sycamore. It lost most of its central trunk in a big storm last December.
In the house, my Christmas cactus is blooming. It never blooms for Christmas; it always waits until January and February.
the apricot and peach buds already are awesome!

24" of snow predicted here. I think I'm moving to your neighborhood!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! Those apricot blooms are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour temperatures must be pretty moderate to have all that activity. Our garlic keeps growing during our weird winter. And you are going to have some serious rhubarb this year. That pie I made was from frozen rhubarb I saved from last summer and it tasted like I just picked it. Yum.
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck? I want to move to CA! These are wonderful photos.
ReplyDeleteAre you familiar with Folia? A friend of mine uses it to track and post about her gardens and flowers and loves it. Apparently a great community.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Nothing growing here but the snow drifts.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks beautiful. We could use some color around here. It's still too cold for anything to pop up.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, these sights are months away for us. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't comment here last time I tried for some reason. I wanted to say how great I think it is that you took WInston for a trail ride. Smart move. I wish I'd taken Rogo out more. You guys are doing so well.
