Spring Blooms Around the Yard









Today I'm joining White Wednesday and Outdoor Wednesday to share some of my spring blooms.
Madison wants you to join us on this hot and sunny Kentucky day
to tour the yard and see what's blooming!

Last Mother's Day we spent the weekend landscaping our front and side yard and it has really begun to pay off.

We planted these gorgeous peonies.

And some digitalis. Yes, I realize these are really lavender, but the outside is white and I think they are to stunning to not share with you.

We are adding in some more perennials this year.

When we moved here there were two huge old Magnolia trees in the side yard. One has since died off but one remains.

I have been anxiously awaiting these blooms for a few weeks. They are high up towards the top of the tree so I'll never get to touch them, but they are great to admire from afar.

Also in the side yard next to my "I think it's a lilac" is this white tree/bush.

Any ideas on what you think it is? Thanks for coming by to visit!

Pink Welcome to Spring



I picked up these pink ranunculus from Whole Foods this week.



They screamed spring to me


I thought they looked particularly nice in my blue and white vase.





Just yesterday they started to open - ahh - spring starts tomorrow - we made it ya'll! Have a great weekend!
I planned to join pink Saturday for the first time but as usual I did not read the directions and failed to email my blog in time, however- jump over to visit at How Sweet the Sound.
