I love May. It’s when my yard is greenest, the hills around Boise are green, lilacs and rhododendrons, my favorite flowers, are blooming and the weather is warm and wonderful-usually. This Spring has been on the colder, windier, rainier side, but it’s helping to fill the reservoirs so I can’t complain too much.



More successes this year….


Another one I’m super excited about is my Clematis.

Libby has taken an interest in flowers as well. She asked to go to the nursery with Rock’s mom and I and she bought a whole bunch of flowers to plant in her own garden box. Her friends even helped her plant them.

The last ones I am hoping will bloom this year are my hydrangeas. I’ve failed several times with them as well. This little bud gives me hope!!

Check back in mid July to see if these beauties actually bloom!
