Pussy Willow

Pussy willows are a fun plant in the spring, with their soft fuzzy catkins. My grandson discovered them on a trip to the zoo, so I ordered a pair one for him and one for me!. The bare root plants came yesterday, so they are heeled in in pots for the moment. the pussy willow and tulip in the mandala were at the Denver Botanic Gardens in an arrangement at the front door the beginning of May.

Snow!

We finally got some measurable snow! We need the moisture and it is pretty to look at - just not to shovel.

more blue

This is almost all blue sky, with the addition of some oak leaves.

More Snow

Snow on a vine in 4 parts.  I liked the way the twigs fell and intertwined with the snow piling up on the top edges. (Still I'm ready for Spring!)
