Signs of Spring
Writting this post for my friend Nancy who
lives on the furthest tip of Ohio. She told
me yesterday when I told her about the signs
of spring that she still see's snow as she looks
out her window.....YIKES!
Look Nancy....we have green stuff
popping up all over!
I was out and about today, without my camera
of course...shame on me. I saw buttercups
in bloom and a tree that is budding out
all over with red buds.
I came home and decided to walk the
yard with my camera and see what
signs of spring I could find.
Sorry folks not good with the
official names of these things but
I do know what we call them here
in TN.....
This is a Lambs Ear. The leaves
feel so soft and fuzzy....like a
lambs ear.
Next peeking up out of the ground around
the shed is one version of a Hostas. These
are my smaller ones, green and white in
color.
And look I already have leaves on my Butterfly bush.

I love the pretty little purple blooms it gets
on it. Course if it was not for these things
and the wild violets that grow in the yard...
I would not have to mow!
this year.
it is....it grows close to the ground and they
starts shooting up. I gets a purple pinky
bloom in the fall close to the first cold snap.
around the mail box that I dismantled
because it had gotten so out of control
and taken over with Day Lilies and Iris.
This is a lone survivor!
