Better Late than Never

Dogwoods, Spring, Minnesota

Everything in the garden is a full month behind this spring– due to the cold weather patterns this year. (We had 8 inches of snow on May 6th.)

The cherry trees just bloomed this week.

    Cherries, we’ve already picked all of ours. Apricots are now on and should be ready to eat or make jam this week.

  • Your cherry tree blossoms are such a beautiful colour. A proper girly girl colour. It’s lovely to have some spring/summer colour in the garden finally. Thanks for sharing.

    • I love pink in the garden. What colors are blooming in your garden? —I see that you are in the UK…How has your weather been this year?

      • The weather in the UK has been dreadful. Apparently the spring has been the coldest for 50 years. Everything is pretty late blooming here however I do have a few pinks and whites. I look forward to more colour in the weeks to come. I thoroughly enjoy your photography so keep up the great work.

  • with the near 100 degrees in the Boston area, the spring flowers are fading fast. The peonies are blooming, the iris are almost finished, the lilacs are done for, and my peach tree has peaches the size of grapes already.

    • Wow! You are way ahead of us! My peonies are only budding right now! I don’t envy your 100 degree temperature though!

    Tennessee also got a late start and we had a couple of cold nights in May, but we have almost caught up now. I’ve been picking strawberries for a couple of weeks and the peas are ready now.
