Monday’s Moments.......




The former owner planted this here. It really is close to it being in full bloom. The New England bluebell does grow wild in our timbers in Iowa.  You can see the sedums are ready to start sprouting taller stems.


As a kid we had these in the flower garden on the farm.  I thought they were so magical.  We only had one or two sprouts that bloomed. This large growth is really wonderful to own.  This and the bleeding heart was two of the old fashioned one that we had on the farm.


The tulips here are about spent but the color is still good. The boy with the pail still hangs in there but his pail has a rusted out bottom. I see that a hosta is pushing through in that bed and the globe allium is about to bloom around the corner.
The electricians are here today. They are stringing a line from the garage over the kitchen attic and to out to the sunroom. They had a long metal eel that did the job quickly. We did notice this morning that we now have many windows to get water spotted from the rain.  The windows do lift out so a cleaning from both sides can be done. Screens on every window makes it a room we could use as a natural air outside space.





I planted this spirea next to the red bud tree and it sure didn’t hesitate to start growing.  This particular kind of spirea is planted along of the business fronts in town.

Hopefully the wiring will get done quickly.  Our drywall workers come tomorrow. It will be a busy week.  I will be glad when it is all done.  Thanks for stopping by today. I hope everyone is well.

Use some old fashioned Glass Wax on the outsides and the rain will sheet off and not leave spots:) Your Bluebells are beautiful! :)

I had some catching up to do here, Larry. The rain has finally stopped here in Nashua, NH and we had a rather nice and sunny day for a change, Your blooms look lovely. The granddaughter, Ella Marie, is a little beauty and will look forward to more photos of her and her brothers.

It looks like it going to be a great space for lovely natural light for more plants!
It's coming together quickly.
