The only time of the year my yard looks halfway decent is during spring when the crabapple and cherry and dogwood trees are blooming. This year our spring has been chilly and the trees and flowers in the yard were late to flower but have lasted a little longer. Still, I have found that the only real way to prolong the life of the blossoms is to preserve them in photos.
Glory of the Snow growing in the walk…
Magnolias in the park…
Pansies on the steps…
Violets in the kitchen…
Crabapple buds outside the window…
Hearts under the maples…
Cherry blossoms at a plant sale…
Crabapple in the front yard…
Azaleas along the walk…
Even candy on the windowsill…It all lasts longer in a photo.

Simply b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l. Have a wonderful weekend, sending love!
Such amazing color and beauty! Makes me happy!
Oh those violets...my favorites
I love them in masses..
I love the wonder of spring color and texture too
oh.my.word.
my favourite is the dogwood. they are every season stunning.
Oh, I love your flowers!! Especially the violets; I miss violets. And that goldfinch is superb--we saw one a couple of weeks ago at my parents'. It had flown into a window & stunned itself. A few minutes later, it was gone. It had flown onto the dogwood to recover :)
All of these are just absolutely gorgeous, again making me so jealous that you have a garden.

These are all just spectacular. I love the dogwood bloom, it is my favorite tree, and the goldfinch, what capture. So jealous you have a garden :-)

these photos are stunning! i especially like the second one.
your flowers are gorgeous!
All your photos are fantastic - love the goldfinch and the bleeding hearts!
Every photo is beautiful and could be framed. The goldfinch sitting on the crabapple tree with that bright blue sky background could win a prize! I love your little vase full of violets ..so sweet.
its like being in a rainbow garden .. your photos are just stunning and have such a special feel ...happy to be here today
I don't know which one to pick as my favorite...they are all so absolutely stunning! I do love that magnolia bloom getting ready to pop open, and that line of bleeding hearts like dainty little ballerinas. But that single branch of crabapple blooms against that grayish background...oh lordy, that just makes my heart squeeze!
That second picture thrills me. Absolutely thrills me.
