10 Signs of Spring In My Garden


Fresh warm season garden vegetables coming soon!


And there will be Pomegranates again this year.


Late winter Aloes are blooming


Lemons blowing in the wind on this gray and rainy day.


Winter warriors that always make me smile.



Late winter joy that will become 'Autumn Joy'


Miniature day lilies returning after a few warm days.


Giant Gunnera returning from the ruins of winter.


Down at the koi pond the pond puppies are beginning to feed again.
Spring is on the way!

Thanks so much for stopping by to stroll in the garden with me.

I'm joining:
Outdoor Wednesday at A Southern Daydreamer
Alphabe-Thursday at Jenny Matlock - I'm entering two link for this week's letter "S" and in this case "S" is for SIGNS of SPRING!

  2. Ohhhhh, I MISS a sweet winter on the coast. I used to live on each at different times and recognized several of the plants from my somewhat distant past. What lovely memories. I'll have to show my senior mom - she is definitely in the gardening mood as well! Thank you :)

  4. This is an awesome post filled with fabulous photos. I love the fish and the red aloe plant. Bud and I have NEVER seen one...did not even know they existed. We have learned something tonight. The chicken manure takes the prize as the cleverest yet. Happy Rednesday.

  5. Candy, your garden photos are pulling at my heart strings. I look out and see crispy brown or mushy green. I've so much clean up work to do after this last bout of freezing temps here. My beautiful ginger is completely beaten down.
    Spring can't come too soon for me. I'm looking forward to some of what you have shown today. ;-) Such beauty at your abode!!!

  9. What a great graphic on the manure bag. Thanks for the reminder that warmer days are coming. I love how the days are long enough that it's still light when I get home each evening.

  12. Signs of Spring....wonderful, warmer weather... I especially love your lemon tree! And several of my hubby's family have beautiful Koi ponds...I've not heard them called "pond puppies" :o) That is too cute, they certainly are like puppies waiting to be fed :o)

    Blessings & Aloha!

  16. Sweet S post. We're still buried under too many feet of snow to measure. This was good for my soul.

  19. Will you share just a little bit of your Spring with me?? It will be April before I am in the garden! Your photos are so lovely and make me "green" with envy!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Wow! Spring! Lucky you! We just had snow a couple days ago so I'm guessing spring won't be for another few weeks. Looking at your photos make me anticipate it though!

  21. Accckkk!!!! And you're a gardener too?

    Geez.

    OK, is there anything you're not amazing at?

    I worked in the garden yesterday for a little over two hours with my oldest Grand and it was magical. We planted potatoes and eggplant and thinned poppies and larkspur. We ate carrots pulled from the compost-enriched soil and fought the dog for fresh asparagus!

    This glorious post made me think of that again and smile!

    Thanks for a special link!

    A+

  22. I'm so pleased you all are hoping for Spring just like I am! I think the reason I bought that brand of chicken manure was because of those too cute RED chickens! LOL Some marketing genius knew what they were doing .....

  24. With the morning temps back to the upper 30sF, it's a little harder to envision Spring, but I'm still pulling for a glorious season coming soon.
