Skirts flying everywhere! Bells ringing! Complete mayhem!

Okay, okay... it's just my front walk going beserk - I adore columbine with their little ballerina skirts. ^_^

The iris beds are just beyond them, not quite opened up yet. The columbine is coming up with the forget-me-nots and bluebells as the narcissus, trillium and candytuft fade... lilacs, tulips, strawberries, dogwood, coral-bells, vinca and others jumping in the fray, irises, peonies and rhodies just barely opening to add the larger showy ones soon. My penny-ball is in this picture as well, the copper is just beginning to darken.


One of the tall pale pink columbines with a few attendant bluebells and a coral-bell wanting in on the action:



I was wading knee-deep through the daylilies to get to some weeds and just wanted to flop backwards into all of the soft green and look up at the sky, spring is such a fresh and sweet time. Didn't flop, but I did manage to sit in the sunshine a while and get some rhinestones glued to my blue and black 'outer space ball' for the garden, it's shaping up nicely.

Spring always amazes me all over again every year, even though I've seen it before and know it is coming, a bit like sunsets and first snowfalls, things we never 'get over'.

"In every wood in every spring there is a different green." :D

It's always cheery, having a yard is very therapeutic. Sharing some of it with other people is even better. :-)

Absolutely beautiful! I love the blue haze of little forget-me-nots as a background for the columbine.
