Beautiful Bountiful Bluebells

The bluebells this year are the best I have seen for a while.

It's been fun to just pick a big bag full.

I have a LOT of pressing ahead of me tonight!

Yellow!

Here are the results from yesterday's walk in the pasture.

Promises of Posies

My friend Sue asked today when prairie smoke starts blooming. On my trek through the pasture this afternoon, I decided to check the usual spots, and this is what I found.

The prairie smoke starts out in this redbud form.

I was really looking for bluebells, and finally had success in the search!

The bluebells are just getting started, and with the recent moisture it is looking promising for a generous amount of blooms. A few cold nights are forecast this week, and they might be at a vulnerable stage, but they are heartier than one might think.
