I am always anxious for spring to arrive, and even though we had a mild winter here in Delaware, and trees and flowers are already starting to bloom, I’m still impatient. Today I prowled around my yard and took some pictures of some perennials that are starting to grow, and of course, a picture of my beloved serviceberry tree that is getting very close to blooming! A wonderful surprise was the appearance of three little milkweed seedlings from seeds that I planted last November and left outside over the winter.

Blue lobelia

Cardinal flower

Great pictures, Deb. Be sure to post a picture of your service berry tree when it’s in bloom.
