May just might be my favorite month for the garden. Everything is luscious and full….and blooming like crazy! My favorite flowers are out: lilacs, viburnum, and peonies {although mine are a little late and sparse in blooming this year} and what was once bare ground covered in weeds is now overflowing with greenery. I’m not sure if it’s really my favorite because of how the yard looks OR because it’s the first month of full-fledged SPRING so my senses are heightened to this sort of thing. In case you aren’t sure what our yard looks like, here is a snapshot I created at this same time last year along with flowers from one year ago. It’s fun to see how things change!!
How are your garden’s doing? If you have tons of peonies, I am jealous!
