My garden is in full spring bloom right now. The magnolia is probably the most gorgeous, bursting with white and pink blooms floating along like little delicate teacups on every thin branch. To stand underneath it reminds me of being underneath layers of fluffy feathers or a tulle and crinoline petticoat. There are other blooms, but most are simple and small: wild violets, veronica, glory of the snow, grape hyacinth, and tete-a-tete. There’s still the May blooms to come (lilac, candytuft, jacob’s ladder, and all the tulips, to name a few) but I’m definitely enjoying this truly glorious April in my garden.
