Garden Walk

The weather has been crazy this spring in Oklahoma.  We had a late frost and lots of cold weather that was preceded by a brutal winter.  I've been busy working in my garden and I'm almost through cleaning out my flower beds and replacing things I've lost.  



I love waking up early, grabbing a cup of coffee and walking in the garden to enjoy the sights and sounds.    


Red geraniums, salvia and white alyssum are great companions in a french wire basket.



Oakleaf hydrangeas are just wonderful for our climate, although slow to get established...so worth the wait! 
  


First little lavender sprigs from my mini-lavender garden.



Roses on the arbor 


  Million bells outside my kitchen window looking
 into the woods behind our house.


Last week I saw the first Monarch arrive so I replaced the butterfly bushes I lost this  winter so they would have plenty of flowers to visit as they migrate through.  



This butterfly is on our privet that is blooming and smells so good!

I love morning garden walks!

I'm off to the nursery...in search of white hydrangeas
 for a very shady spot.  

What's blooming in your neck of the woods?
