Spring Gardening

Recently I started thinking that I need to work on the garden I started last year. So I weeded it, and watered the few plants that had come back. Mom and I decided to go shopping for some more plants.

Here are the plants we bought: Bleeding heart, Coleus, Impatiens, Begonias, And a perennial that did not have a tag but it looked pretty.

This is me planting.

Here is some of the new plants.

This is one of the plants from last year. I really did not expect this Japanese fern to come back, I was very surprised when it did.

Here is my completed garden.

I am very happy that we have a cat this year; our cat Linus likes to sit with me in my garden, and he keeps away all the rabbits that love to chew on my plants.

Spring Is Here

Spring has come very fast this year, I have been outside all day these last few days. I just cannot stay inside. Here are some of the things that spring has brought.


Blue sky, during winter it is always covered with clouds.


The bradford pear tree's are blooming, even though I am allergic to these trees they are very pretty in spring.



My little garden that I planted last year is growing back.



And the flowers are all coming back too. Spring is the nicest time of year.
