Spring gardening


Some people call them noxious weeds and pull them up. Me, I call them beautiful purple woods violets--haha, bet you thought I was going to refer to those yellow dandelions, didn't you? Well, I have learned to like them too, even though I pull them out of the flowerbeds. We have goldfinches all over the woods here, and when we drive up our driveway, flocks of golden dandelions rise in flight from the patches on the ground--apparently dandelions are a goldfinch favorite. So a little springtime gift-a picture of our violets blooming their little heads off in our rose garden--please enjoy!
