April 2008: Ah, crocuses!

A long, cold winter finally yields the floor of the garden to the crocuses, snowdrops and popping greenery of early, early spring.

Take a look as Marge's garden sheds its winter doldrums.

July 2006: Warm colors, hot days

The solstice and the Fourth are past. The garden bursts with the colors of lilies.

June: Bright light for all

Summer arrives, bringing along sunshine and pleasantly hot days.

The garden has peonies and poppies alongside foxglove and astilbe.

It is a time of colorful transition from spring to summer.

May: So green, so lush

May blooms are bright in the garden. But what really stands out is the green—so many different shades!

March: Crocuses

This patch of crocuses popped up in mid-March. They were joined by purple crocuses and white ones as well.
