At day's end...

Happy Tuesday morning! Yesterday was a day of rest from the garden, though we did go to Lowe's to pick up some Black Cow and cypress mulch (we have some very nasty soil in these parts, and nothing can be planted without amending it).

Here are some photos taken Sunday while working around the yard. I can't believe that spring seems to be finally on its way, and the gardens seem to change a little bit each day. Yesterday it reached about 75.

Hubby's job was widening the beds

behind the screened porch, since the

hydrangeas on the left were getting too big and

 hitting him in the face every time he mowed.

Mulching to follow...



My job was completing the laying of

the pine straw along the path going

down to the gazebo...

Of course, I couldn't resist taking a few close-ups

of the daffodils planted last fall.

This one is a Repleat Daffodil...

...this is a Tahiti...

...and this an Ice King...

Here are some blossoms from the cherry tree...

...along with those on the crab apple tree.

A sweet little vintage garden statue, finally

beginning to accumulate some moss. Hooray...

And at day's end, some time to relax...

Make sure you take some time to relax yourselves! Seize the day...
