Favourite flowers this week

There’s so much to enjoy in the garden this week.   Everything is putting on a growth spurt, weeds included.   The pink crabapple blossom, Princeton Cardinal, is stunning and has a lovely delicate fragrance.  It is planted close to our beehives and the bees literally make a ‘beeline’ to it.  Care needed when admiring the blossom up close!   The yellow blooms of Erythronium pagoda look just perfect as does the white Dicentra spectabilis.     Shrubs are now coming into leaf and there is such a variety of different shades of green in the garden.  Three Hydrangeas and two Acers purchased late last year have finally been planted after much discussion as to where they will go and hopefully will grow well in their chosen spots.
