the rhododendron's can't help themselves this year



they just want to bloom!





spring garden planting


blue kuri and red uchiki kuri squash (for winter) planted around the bird bath so they have room to roam

herbs, white icicle radish, garlic and aka shiso (red perilla)

blueberries along the fence and a large green rhubarb that has gone to flower already ... it loves the warmth of the garage with the eastern morning sun
