Early Spring Blooms

This Autumn Cherry was in pretty bad shape, and has been "babied" for the past couple of years.  It is responding beautifully to a little TLC.

The Okami cherries are the real "show stoppers" at the moment from the street.

There are hundreds of these daffodils at the Big House, the most notable of which line a long fence at the front of the property. 
Edgeworthia is perfuming the screened porch 
I came upon this hellebore in the wooded garden. 
The pansies are loving the sun!

As usual, these are pretty huge files, so click for a better look.

  1. What beautiful photo's. The cherry trees are wonderful. Love to see spring happening somewhere. Here in Winnipeg its -42 with the wind chill. March is coming in like a lion and here's hoping it leaves like a lamb. Thank you for your blog and for filling me with hope of Spring.

  3. I wish more people would plant Okame. It is the earliest of Cherries for us, has a great shape and does not get too big.

  4. The cherry tree is beautiful. We have Japanese Magnolias blooming in our area now. Isn't Spring wonderful?
    Your photos are a feast for the eyes.
