HAPPY EASTER

here's a newt with her eggs for easter!

magnolia daybreak is somewhat peachy, which is rare for the usually purply magnolias...

we are working on the retaining wall that fell, removing blocks to rescue hydrangea blue tide.

magnolia ruby is blooming in front of the cherry tree...

 i had to take lots of photos of her...

bleeding hearts are doing their thing...

here's a surprise - morels in the front shade garden again...

a red epimedium...
 camellia 'april dawn' blooming... now i need to move her because of the fallen wall...

 magnolia ruby... this is the best display ever!

my hoya is filling my office with a tropical scent today...

i just planted most of the potager... here's the mess on my desk of seeds and plans... 
happy easter!

Fancy finding a newt with eggs! How lucky can you be?
I'd love to be able to wave a magic wand and have beautiful Magnolias like yours :)
Ruby with the cherry blooms...wow! Beautiful pics!!
My pretty little hoya is different from your beauty and mine has no scent. Yours is gorgeous.
You call that a mess on your desk? You ain't seen mine :)
I still haven't found an epimedium. Hopefully someday...
That Camellia is exquisite.
You have so many lovely things in your garden.
Hope you had a very happy Easter, Em!
