February's "What's in Bloom"

As many of you know, Joseph has a blossoming (ha ha) love for gardening. We really do have an awesome amount of greenery around the property and it's a shame that you all can't just pop over here to view it anytime to see (and smell) what's in bloom. So, what better way to share the floral love than via a monthly journal. This should take us at least to October...

As you may have noticed, it is March, and I'm talking about February. Well, I took these pictures in February. Then, all of us caught a nasty bug or two and, so, here we are! March 10th, on the eve of another NC weather prediction forecasting snow over the weekend. I hope the weather doesn't damage what is already growing, but I fear the worst. Temps are going to get below freezing several nights in a row. We don't have enough bedsheets to cover everything that is in bloom, so we'll start with the blueberries and go from there.

I promise I will try my darndest to be more timely about posting in the future.

Spreads nicely and blooms early!

Cute and petite blooms, no taller than 4-5"

Cute clumps of white clustered flowers

These were here when we bought the property. Probably many old varieties.

Love this variety! These were here when we bought the property. Probably many old varieties.

I planted this one. I didn't think it would come back since we covered it over, but it was the only one to push through. Nice!

No fruits on this one, but such lovely blossoms!

of the edible kind!

No cherries on this one...will be full of blossoms in about a week.

We have no clue as to the age of this tree, but each year it flowers I'm amazed. The heart of the tree is completely hollow so I am in awe of its persistence.
