My North American Garden is in full bore spring. The magnificent quince ( salmon colored) lived up to its adjective, white dogwoods old but flowering, narcissis and unfurling hosta are up and out. Yesterday we saw or felt, the hummers. The robins have a nest in the rhody, close by the house and two raccoons have taken residence in the 16 ft stump of a tree that interrupted a squirrel nest two years ago. I finally dug up 4 containers of quince shrubs, and repotted them. They are marked for sale, with a slather of Japanese maples, red and green. Pocket money for plane fare in August. If my energy holds up, the pool surround needs cleaning and digging, and manure needs spreading in the veggie bed. Its been cool, and now wet, but no no-see-ums are buzzing in my face. After a day of digging, the garden looks a lot prettier than I do!

What a picture you paint of your garden Meredith! I hope you might post a pic or two in the coming weeks on the regular Sunday chat. All the best
I am very much going to look forward these Sunday saunters through your edibles
I’m expecting to see some excellent edibles from wherever you are, even if I’m rude about you always being abroad
It's my guilty pleasure....
Lovely! Have posted mine. And thank you for the link across x
