What's Blooming this Week

We are in the peak of spring this week. Everything is lush green, our resident lazuli bunting is singing in the treetops across the street, hummingbirds are zooming around the backyard.

I walked out at Mission Road this week and saw 5 bobolinks.  This is a bird I had been searching for 7 years before seeing my first 2 years ago.  No photos as Leo was off kayaking on Quesnel Lake this week.

Here's what's blooming:

I love these little unknown flowers Leo planted from seed years ago.  Lost the seed package and have never been able to figure out what they are called.  Gartezwerg also approves.

Our early irises are blooming, as are the lilacs

And the lily of the valley,

And columbines.

The euphorbia is also in full color.

The vegetable garden is all in and the lettuce and kale have sprouted.
