It was a rainy day but not to distress too much since it means water for the new flowers of spring.

The above photograph was taken in my yard and shows a great grouping of some purple grape hyacinth plants.

These are rather small only about 5 to 6 inches in height.

Wheelbarrow Full of Rain Water

The photograph on the left, shows my wheelbarrow full of rain water.

It has rained most of the day.

We were lucky to get a good deal of yardwork done yesterday when the sun was out.

In the background notice my Bradford Pear tree.  It’s a lovely tree with a lot of branches to it.  So far my Bradford Pear is still looking in good shape.

I think it is protected from sharp limb breaking winds by the surrounding trees.

Spring Garden Chores

• Clean up leaves, sticks, and other yard debris.
