April Garden



Lots of rain while we were gone. Everything's goin' nuts.



Ranunculas, native iris, daffies. Yes, yellow oxalis flowers too. The Demon Weed gives off a really pretty ground cover before it dies.



Turned on JJ-aka-PP's sprinkler for the first time last weekend. It still works.



Fuschias in red, native glads in yellow this year. The wild bulbs always been just orange before, now we've got two colors.




It's the same thing every April. By July-August all is dry and forgotten. But this year Plotnik is not going water once it goes dry, except by watering can for selected plants. Maybe he can dry out his irises and daffies and clivia and have them come back for once. They say the tomatoes taste better if they dry out. We'll see.
