Mid Spring Blossoms!


We've just experienced a blossom explosion  in our area of New England ! Some of my favorite mid Spring bloomers are putting on quite a show!  This field is a sea of yellow flowers to which I have no idea the name of. Anyone?


These Lilacs in bloom are such an interesting shade of purple.



  Can't you just smell their sweet scent? No other flower quite says spring like Lilacs.  



Well, except for Tulips!




 Grape Hyacinth dancing in the grass! 


And, the dunes are turning green too! It won't be long before the wild beach roses are in bloom again!
I hope you are all enjoying a lovely mid spring medley of blossoms, whether in your own back yard, clay pot or your surrounding landscape or city scape!

If you've ever wondered how to attract Hummingbirds into your garden go visit my friend, Sharon Lovejoy's Lowes blog post on how to create a fabulous Hummingbird Garden in a pot!


I'll be back soon with NEW Garden snippets from Dandelion House!

 With warmer weather finally here in the Northeast spring has finally sprung! It's been so fun to visit your blogs and to see your farms, homesteads and urban gardens coming to life as spring unfolds across America and beyond. I love seeing the abundant variety of raised beds people have been sharing on this hop! They have been an inspiration to me to get my own going here at home. I promise to share how it comes together in an upcoming post soon! Meanwhile, back at the ranch...


It's time to link up again for your weekly dose of farmgirl soul food!
