I Love the Little Things...
The first apple tree is blooming.
I have to stay conscious about appreciating its beauty every moment possible, because the flowers are so short lived.
Just looking at that pink makes me crave cotton candy...or watermelon flavoured Hubba Bubba (bubble gum I was addicted to as a youth) .
Do You Like Green?
Chives
Oregano
Kale that seeded itself from last year...I really gotta thin this out. Do you hate thinning? I'm wondering if I should just let the slugs thin it for me, or leave it and just play the 'let's see what happens' game.
The thin, grassy looking stuff is dill, which seeded itself as well haha! I'm seriously going to be the laziest gardener of all time this year, and watch...you just watch, I'll have the best yield that I've ever had all from not planning.
Ok, there's a really fucked story about this tree. We found it a couple years ago, in a shallow bucket, on a hill...growing. Someone littered a bucket up there a long time ago, and a seed fell in with a bunch of organic matter that had been accumulating in it for lord knows how many years...and it grew itself...in a bucket. It was the first fuckit bucket I'd ever found. That tree said fuck it, I'm gonna grow in a bucket.
I'm pretty sure it's a mountain ash, but I could be wrong...as you can see it's still a little sapling. I love this tree and I can't wait to drive by this property later in life and see how it's doing. It really has done great in the place I transplanted it.
A Cool Bee-Looking Thing
The Sugar Peas are Sprouting
Onion
A variety of lettuces that I need to thin...badly.
Sonic glaring at me through the chicken wire because I won't let them devour my seedlings. She's in the dustbath...but it's looking suspiciously like they are digging a tunnel...
The deer haven't eaten the hostas yet :) They usually like to come by and "thin" them for me.
It Was All Yellow
I'm so happy about how long these daffodils have stayed in bloom for, it feels like it's been weeks!
Even just looking at our eggs makes me happy, the soft pastel colours that our hens lay is a feast for my eyes. There is beauty to be found everywhere, and certainly I never have to look far.
Thanks for seeing the world through my eyes yet again STEEM Family.
