This year’s crop of grapes is small, and won’t be ripe for at least another month, but I was reminded of what we have to look forward to by this photo of a prior year sent in by neighbors Roy and Mary — thanks for sharing!

The various clumps of dianthus growing along the fence seem to have generally survived the winter and are blooming again.

Purple Fireworks

I love the way the globes of these alliums intersect and overlap, like adjacent spherical pyrotechnic bursts.

This azalea bush looked a little forlorn over the winter, but has made a wonderful return.

Brilliant Cockscombs

Most of the flowers are gone from the garden, but the cockscombs (Celosia) are still vibrant.
