The Exploding Garden

What sound does an exploding garden make? Could it be YIPPEE... or is that the sound the gardener makes? Two warm days have made the garden literally explode with flowers, and all I can say is that it's about time! Our garden, I'll have you know is divided up into rooms (though I must admit, while some of the rooms are like fine parlors, there are a couple of back closets, too). The center room of the garden has been kind of a forgotten room... you'd think it would be the area I'd have developed first and foremost, but logic has not been a driving element in this garden. In fact, for several years I used that space to pile brush and such, since it was of course easily accessible from all the rest of the garden. Of course that sometimes necessitated subtly (or sometimes firmly) steering garden tourers past that opening. Slowly however, I've been developing that spot, though it still seems a little out of focus, or themeless. I might be getting there, though, as today when I wandered into the garden, a sweet, musky perfume wafted up the front path, which I followed into the center room, where a patch of hyacinths was in full bloom. Lots of other flowers, like hellebores are also now open, so a full garden tour was in order.Posted by Picasa

Lynne... yah, it's your computer. Actually, as I understand it,it was a problem between the blog template and IE... it has been a thorn that I've been wanting to remove for a while, but the fix in the code was a little daunting, so I just changed templates, and hopefully this will work. we'll see. Just as I was in the middle of changing iy, our kitten jumped up and sat down on the keyboard, so no guarantees.
