Spring in the Garden

Peony 'Blaze'Every two weeks, I’m going to post pictures of my front garden on my other blog, the one that I write for Alabama Gardener magazine. I think that’ll be interesting to see how the garden changes through the growing season. But right now it’s spring, and everything is changing so fast that if I don’t post pictures every week, you’ll miss lots of pretty things, like that red peony who only bloomed for about two or three days. Seriously, why do I even give Paeonia lactiflora ‘Blaze’ garden space? That closeup and this next picture were both taken on Monday, April 28th.

Peony ‘Festiva Maxima’ is just starting to bloom, but after just a few days, ‘Blaze’ is done.

I should blog more often so that you don’t miss stuff, but I’m too busy doing stuff to show you all the stuff that’s happening. One minute it looks like this:
