Flowers in the Hood

I am extremely lucky to have neighbors with green thumbs and creative gardens. So I took a tour around the hood to see what's blooming and how the veggies are doing.

My neighbor says she's noticed a distinct lack of honeybees this year. It's been so cold and wet. Sigh.




This year I'm fixated on dark plants so this colour combination makes me very happy.

Comfrey for the bees.

Blueberry blossoms.

Jean's garden has a rustic beauty that I admire. She's always got some ambitious projects on the go.

Her cold frame rocks.

The currants are already forming berries.


A vertical palette garden.




The Saskatoon has lots of blooms.



Greenhouses make good neighbors!!!
