Spring is making its appearance in San Antonio. It is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the promise of good things to come. My citrus trees/bushes are budding with a few buds already open.
The white buds are the Satsuma orange tree.
The pinkish buds belong to my Meyer Lemon.
The pot of ground orchids are in bud and beginning to bloom.

This camellia bush seemed to burst into bloom overnight.

And our vegetable garden - such as it is. The bugs are enjoying our spinach more than we are.
One determined beet seed finally germinated after we planted the edible pod peas. 
Two rows of peas are up and a third is beginning to make its appearance. (You can see the third row if you look carefully in the upper righthand corner.)My sweet peas are finally poking thru the surface.
They do have to contend with the pea gravel we've been trying to get rid of for 26 years.
The pansies are continuing to reward us with lovely blossoms.
Spring - good things are coming.
Umm...a lot of our snow has melted.

I can't wait for signs of spring here. Your plants are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm with Jared--some of our snow is melting and we are having temperatures in the 40's at least. However, come July when its 100% humidity in San Antonio, I'll be glad I'm here. Everything looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI also love spring - it has been wonderful here in Las Vegas. We have been in the 60's and 70's and I love it. Your garden is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is spring here too! The hills are green and lush, the flowers along the freeway are blooming bright orange and yellow and our apple tree is covered in apple blossoms! The weather is cool and delightful. Ah, spring (in Jan and Feb in SD).
ReplyDeleteDoes it count that I am thinking about planting a garden?
ReplyDeleteFun to see your plants and flowers. Jack and I are talking about what to plant here and there around our new house. We'll have to go to a nursery to see what can and can't survive in this heat.
ReplyDeleteHurray for Spring! I am excited to get our garden planted in a couple more months. Looking forward to your visit in 5 weeks.
