My garden is blooming big time, every day I check my fruit trees and it makes me happy thinking about the future fruit.

Almost all my container plants are blooming, a lot of begonias and the redbud recently planted....

My satsuma is full of buds - first year! Some cosmos and marigolds came up on their own from seed from last year, my pinxter azalea planted last spring is full of buds too. I grow a lot of wild flowers (gallardia special and a little tiny yellow daisy) and they are all up - the little daisies are blooming! My evening primroses rosettes that formed after they bloomed were eaten up by something and so far only two are up.

Several Croton cuttings in the mistbed have new growth as well as the plants they were cut from. This is at the 3-weed mark from cutting, right on time. Yep, spring is here. Summer's only a few more days away.

LOL! Yeah, it does seem that summer comes earlier and earlier, doesn't it?

My confederate rose that was whacked back to an inch tall has all sorts of little green shoots on it. It's going to be beautiful this year, I think, if I can keep the whiteflies off of it. I think starting the spraying early and keeping at it all summer will be the key.

My little blood orange is cranking out lots of new growth & blossoms. That makes me happy. Other citrus is blooming as well. Walter's viburnum is blooming & my Barbados cherry is starting to put out a few flowers & today I spied some buds on my blue-eyed grass & new growth on my black mission fig. I also have a pineapple flowering = )

My Anna Apple is blooming, and another year goes by without a cross-pollinator. :(

The fig tree is just putting out new leaves. The Camelias have been in full bloom for a month. A few roses are out. The Bottle brush trees have buds - also the Coral Honeysuckle and Porterweed are showing blossoms, so the hummingbirds are happy.

I really enjoy the natives: The wild blackberries, Walter's Viburnum and Dogwoods are blooming. Also the wild plums. There are a lot of white flowers this time of year. Carolina Jessamine, yellow climbing up into the tree tops. Even the palmettos are putting out their flower spikes. I need to do a walkabout in the back to see if the wild violets are out.
