Spring is approaching and I am discovering lots of spring bloomers I didn’t know lived in my new garden. I am thrilled with what I’m finding. This is a Saucer Magnolia and the front yard tree is resplendent in pink buds, some starting to open. Even before I moved in this tree seemed special because hidden among the leaves I found a sequined bird with real feathers clipped to an interior twig. I left that little bird there. It seemed like a nice place to perch. Other discoveries include daffodils along the front walkway, freesia (my favorite spring flower) and other bulbs that I can’t identify yet. I can’t wait to see what else I discover this spring.
