Beauty in the Midst of all our Rain

We had more rain in North Central Texas during the month of May than we did all last year total.  I've been afraid of losing a lot of the plants in the garden but there have been some bright spots to cheer things up.  


 
Especially the Calla Lilies.


They cam back twice as big and multiplied





The Easter Lilies had about 3 new little offshoots come up as well



So far, the Calla Lilies have been the queen of the garden.  They are still blooming and have been going strong for almost two months.

Signs of Spring

 Spring is finally here.  The Snowbells are up and blooming



As is the Forsythia.  This is the first year for this new forsythia to bloom.  I look forward to watching it grow and become more and more beautiful each year.  The yellow flowers didn't last long.  They have already been replace by tender green leaves.

Miniature daffodil "Quail" has always been a favorite of mine.
