There are so many things going on in the garden right now. We make the rounds every day to see how many daylilies have opened their first flowers of the season. They are blooming about three weeks earlier than they every have before. We’re planning a plant sale for Saturday, so we’re taking a mental inventory of what will be available as we walk the yard.
The hydrangeas have been especially pretty this year. This particular shrub has a wide variety of color on it, from pale pink through deep pinky-red to blue and on to purple. All on the same bush. Just beautiful.
With a lot going on, I’m posting a quick menu for the week.
Monday
