Redbud  (Cercis Canadensis)

How quickly the days, weeks and months rush along!  Every day there are new amazements. I like to spend my time in the garden and pay close attention. The only trouble is that I don't get much done indoors.


 

 Milkweed (Asclepius syriaca)

As I was emptying the old potting soil from  a flowerpot, I discovered several pods of milkweed that had dropped into the soil and been covered up.These seed pods had overwintered here and are now sprouting.


 


I  carefully separated some of the sprouts and planted them in little pots.

There have been a lot of intersting bird visitors in the backyard. Each morning I toss a pan of seeds and the feathered friends swoop in.


 

A rare visit from a Rose Breasted Grosbeak


I've only made time for a little silk dyeing. Luckily, this weekend will be chilly and stormy so maybe I'll get back to work indoors.
