"Show me your garden and I shall tell you what you are."
Alfred Austin
"My whole life has been spent waiting for an epiphany, a manifestation of God's presence, the kind of transcendent magical experience that lets you see your place in the big picture.
And that is what I had with my first compost heap."
Bette Midler
Spring has reached the stage where it means business in my garden. I thought I'd spend this week documenting the long anticipated unfurling of petals and leaves. Don't you love the dunce's cap on the Californian poppies?

I love that little dunce's cap - wow! How beautiful. Nature is full of such unexpected beauty. LOVE!
I didn't know the Californian Poppy was so cute when it's infurling.

Exquisite!
I love these flowers, but I guess they need plenty of sun and space?
