#bloomscrolling

I just discovered this splendid hashtag a few moments ago, and I feel an instant urge to dip my toes into the stream.

So here is #today 's eruption of backyard joy from our always reliable #Weigela.

I think this species is "W. florida" -- meaning "flowery" -- as it most surely is this morning.

Ahh yes, the garden today was spectacular, the perfect temperature for moving around: 64F

Hellebores from the Wedding Party series. Czechmark Trilogy weigela is the small shrub that looks like sticks in the second image which you can just make out is swelling to leaf out, a few green tips already poking out in the light.
