Happy Easter! It is way too cold in Portland for the rhoddies to bloom yet. A couple really stalwart ones, but brrrrrr . . .

Beautiful colours! Happy Easter. We dont have flowers, but it’s been a great weekend to enjoy the last of summer sun, and the start of autumn rains. For us in the southern hemi, it’s a time to celebrate new beginings with new plantings.

The flower picture is beautiful. It reminds me of the spring I was in Seattle with you and you drove me around to see the gorgeous spring flowers and flowering shrubs.
I’m looking out at a white, bleak, cold morning. but we should have change soon.

Thank you, everyone, for your comments on my flower photo. I’m sorry to take so long to respond here. It’s been a very busy two weeks since Easter, and I’ve just dropped off the blogosphere for awhile. Hopefully back to normal now.

Beautiful, beautiful rhoddies!! Mine haven’t started blooming yet. We’re always much later than the PNW.
