Pink and Blue



Although each flower of these forget-me-nots is tiny, they bloom so profusely that I can see them from my kitchen window-over 15 yards away.



This bleeding heart surprises me every spring.

It goes from brown, dead leftovers from the prior year to green and blooming almost overnight. Not really, but once I see it starting to emerge from the ground, it doesn't take more than a couple weeks to be three feet tall and covered with blossoms.
I'm so happy to see these flowers each spring. It's still too soon to plant anything outside, since we haven't reached our frost-free date yet, and that makes these all the more special.
