Rhododendron Flowering

I have one little Rhododendron growing.

This bush starts flowering at a very small size.

The willows and poplars I grow come in many different colors.

The Ussuri plums usually give a good flower display in early spring.

Hopefully this results in a good fruit yield for me.

The goats didn’t want to wait for the snow to melt.

They went out onto the snowy pasture to eat any green blades of grass they can see.

The horse doesn’t look amused about the green grass covered under the snow.

But soon the snow will disappear and the horse will be happy.

The soda and willow cuttings are keeping cool in April.

Everything in the landscape was coated with ice.

This willow was starting to wake up this spring, but now must wait a little longer.

Usually fall is the time to dig root crops in the garden, but parsnips can be dug in spring.

The winter helps sweeten up this crop.

This Japanese Pagoda’s stems are very noticeable in winter.

The golden color stands out in the winter’s brown colors, though the top of this tree had some winter damage.
