Spring has sprung
I took these pictures on the first day of Spring.
Nothing really special about this boxwood, except that underneath it I found
a thriving English ivy!
There are mounds of this shrub in the front garden. Looks like something in the rhododendron/azalea family?
Whatever it is, it is covered with buds.
And speaking of buds, these are on a tall shrub in the same garden. Any one know what it is?
I love the spent heads and the new buds shooting up.
Elsewhere, I found flowers on some vinca!
So pretty.
Doesn't this moss look like a forest of tiny trees?
And speaking of tiny trees, I have my very own wild bonsai.

Lovely findings indeed! :)
Happy Happy Spring Paula! isn't it fun poking around a new(ish) place making bits of discoveries?
Hahah, we had a few inches of snow on the first day of Spring but it was gone in a couple of days and it didn't take long for everything to heave into Spring.
Love the bonsai!
