Ouch! Bobert, you're a real cut up! Having nicked myself a few times out in the garden, I know it can happen.
Everything is bursting forward here, pity that most of it is weeds I'll have to pull or mow soon. But there is a lot going on in the "sanctioned" part of the yard as well.
Texas star hibiscus is sending up shoots
Daffodils all over the place
Blue iris blooming
Yellow iris sending up stems
Salvia gregii blooming profusely everywhere
Cannas sending up shoots (and I've transplanted some so they don't take over my porch)
Spiderwort that I transplanted from the woods last year is looking marvelous in its rich blue flowers
Wisteria blooming
Redbud at absolute peak right this very minute
Leaves coming out on baldcyprus, metasequoia, vitex, and desert willow
Lots of flowering weeds in the lawn
I'm probably missing some stuff
oh, yeah,
mosquitoes out
something is munching on my tomatoes already
lots of fire ants in the yard
