Spring Blooms In My Ohio Garden

peach blossoms 3

A couple weeks ago I shared some daffodil blooms from my Ohio garden, but that’s not all that’s blooming around here. The fruit trees have gone crazy this year! They also bloomed really, really early. I’ve been worried that a freeze would take them all away. I went out several nights over the last couple weeks to cover as much as I could with sheets when the temperature was supposed to fall below freezing. So far the seem to be doing fine. Most of our fruit trees are in a little low spot where the wind doesn’t really hit them. I think it’s kept them from getting too cold.

Here are my peach blooms from a couple weeks ago. This is the first time this tree has really bloomed! I think it just wanted to prove me wrong because I told my dad the week before that it never blooms!

It just went crazy!

I’m seeing peach pie in my future!

The lilacs were also going crazy!

Look what else is peeking out of the ground!

Asparagus on the grill is the best!

What’s growing in your April garden?

Happy Mother’s Day!

Hope you all have a wonderful Mother’s Day. I always think of Mother’s Day as the day to really dig in the garden and get everything planted. It’s not going to happen this year. It’s been raining all night and all day.

Here’s a shot of my lilac bush when it was in full bloom a couple days ago, the blooms are starting to fade a little now.
