April Garden Journal

Hello everyone, 

It's Sunday evening and Sweetheart and I are 

relaxing while watching television. 

I love to blog on my laptop at the same time

as I watch television. I blog awhile and then

play a game of Candy Crush...I'm addicted. 

The garden is in full swing. I will outside

everyday this week getting our garden and 

patio ready for this weekend. We are having our 

children and granddaughters here for

our city's annual car show. 

Now to the April Garden Journal
'Don Juan'

is showing off this year.

We've had more rain this year and the 

artichokes are big and fat and ready to eat.

The day after I took this photo the artichokes were

so top heavy I found the all the artichokes face down on 

ground. I decided it was time to pick them for dinner.
They were tender and delicious.

I have two 'Joseph's Coat' climbers.

My favorite Iris.

I will be cleaning the dandelions out of my iris bed this week.

My Saint

We are now in the Secret Garden.

I love the mini rose climber with

the happy blue Delphinium.

'Candy Cane' rose climber.

'Ingrid Bergman'

The day lilies will be blooming in a few weeks.

Joyously,
