PURSLANE PLANTS, KNOCKOUT ROSES WILD VIOLETS AND YELLOW POND IRIS

I have three planters like this one each has 3 purslane plants in them 2 reds 1 yellow.   

My knockout roses that my husband planted a few years ago are now blooming. 

Where I once had a fish pond I still have the pond iris that are in bloom. 

Some of the wild violets I have, this bunch is on the bank.  Click photos to enlarge.

LATE BLOOMING AZALEAS APPLE BLOSSOMS AND MORE

I love the color of this azalea .

These are planted at the end of my property.

This is the red azalea that is behind the pink one in the above photo.

My apple tree has a few blooms on it.

These come up every year. 

These come up every year also.
It is warming up nicely so I have been getting my flower pots and planters ready so I can soon go buy plants to put in them.  I am not much of a gardener no green thumb but I keep on trying.

WELCOME THE MONTH OF APRIL

This I saw on n April day: warm rain split from a sun-lined cloud, a sky-flung wave of gold at evening, and a cock pheasant treading a dusty path shy and proud.

And this I found in an April field: a new white calf in the sun at noon, a flash of blue in a cool moss bank, and tips of tulips promising flowers to a blue-winged loon.
    ~James Hearst~

" April rain is here again; hear it pitter, pitter, patter, on the leaves and on the trees, see it spitter, spitter, spatter.  Rain, oh rain, don't go away we need you for flowers in May; drip, drip, drop and so not stop, send a little rain our way."
            ~Nina B. Hartford~

" April, April laugh they girlish laughter; then, the moment after,  weep thy girlish tears."
                ~Sir William Watson~

Have a great month of April.
