Musings

No greens tonight, though

Bloomin bulbs

Still enjoying blooming bulbs.

Japanese magnolias

I do like Japanese/deciduous magnolias; I especially enjoy the dark pink ones.

Dande lion

Starvation food—maybe no longer appropriately classified that way, since dandelion greens now are sold at Whole Foods.

Foooooood for thought

Blooms vine

Chew-bot is a robot goat, a Canadian transformer-like toy. As seen on “Corner Gas.”

Note small lily pad

Goddess in winter

We made a pilgrimage to see the Earth Goddess. She’s clearly awaiting spring.

Tulip interior

In a sunny part of the garden, tulips…

Many tulips

…and more tulips!

Tree reflection

In another water feature…a reflection of leafless tree above.

Temp tag

Brown green

Checked out the BeltLine over by Ansley, where we haven’t walked in…well, since The Foot. It’s time…but didn’t happen today. Notice that the golf course green is still a bit brown….

TempTag

And the headline is from this “Temp Tag”—fella, ya better hope a cop doesn’t stop you!

You can’t tell it from these photos, but the sun did come out a bit for a bit. Wan sun, though.

March! March, already! Whew, this year is flying by!

Can a tomato juice

Carolina jessamine buds

Carolina jessamine buds. I think it’s a corruption/variant of jasmine.

Carolina jessamine flower

Carolina jessamine flower. On the moss below above. Although I didn’t see any open flowers on the plant, only buds.

Petal wrackline

This was even more deconstructed. A petal wrack line. Without a coast, so I guess not a true wrack line.

Title refers to a line in an early season three episode of “Corner Gas,” our current binge-watching show. Go Saskatchewan!

Vine, name unk to me

Mmm smells good

These smell super-fine!

Spring anticipation

Trees against sky

I thought I had high-quality deep thoughts to pass along…but turns out I’m just another cheap date.

Standing on the ground, I was too far away to see the buds, to determine if they’re beginning to swell. Instead, I just moseyed along…better able to monitor the ground-level springiness.

Waiting for tomorrow’s sun

Daffyoday

Yeah, more blooming bulbs!

Malusmaybe

And one of those apple/pear Rosaceae species….

Plant whiff talk

Smells so good

Smells so great, so very floral! [Forgot the name….]

No smell brilliant yellowgreen

No blooms; no smell. But prototypical yellow-green, I’d say.

Mixed message

Bolting cabbabage

Right in the nearby neighbors’ yard I found a cabbage…already bolting! In February! Crazy WARM rainy weather….

Hyacinth bud

However, I was encouraged when I found a hyacinth still in bud farther afield. Or a-yard.
