Update on flowers blooming! I always thought about doing applique patterns from pictures of my flowers. Should really do that. I think I have enough to do a whole book.
I did a close up shot to show you all the baby crabapple trees. They are everywhere.

I really need to downsize my hosta. They are getting too big and taking over a lot of my other flowers. Like the fern behind.

There are two different kinds of seeds coming up in this pot. I will have to repot them. I'm not positive what they are. I'll know when they get bigger.

These little ants are doing their work. I learned this the hard way. Did you know the ants have to work the peonie bloom pods in order for them to bloom. I sprayed mine one time to get rid of the ants. Needless to say, I didn't have a bloom one that year.
