The First Sergeant spent the entire weekend, mowing, trimming, pruning, fixing, and even a little painting.
Putting the place 'to rights' after a long Winter's nap takes quite an effort, and will be ongoing for several weekends to come.
My effort consisted of hanging the porch ferns. and planting Geraniums.
I've still got lots of empty pots to fill, and birdhouses to tend......

The Perennials are flowering.
With the much warmer weather this early Spring, they seem to be blooming ahead of their time.

The
First Sergeant created this garden circle last Fall, it seems to have flourished well.
I can't wait until all the flowers return.
"Everything is blooming most recklessly;
if it were voices instead of colors,
there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night."
~ Rainer Maria Rilke: Letters of Rainer Maria Rilke

How pretty
Your yard is just lovely. Makes a person want to linger.
It seems like an early spring everywhere this year. It's been a hot 85 degrees here this afternoon.
So lovely! Looks so lush there for only being early April...
Afternoon! Jo,
You have such a beautiful serene landscape. I love everything about it :o)
The garden circle with a statue of St. Francis is so lovely. Very inspirational!
No flowers in bloom here yet. I'm looking forward to outdoor gardening. Can't wait!
Have a Blessed Holy Week,
Hugs,

Incredibly beautiful and serene. Thank you again for your forays into the garden, and then sharing.
Your home looks so lovely!
I love these scenic photograps.
Great looking home and i really dont look forward to spring cleaning, but i do look forward to spring! Richard
Lovely looking at all your photos here today. Spring cleaning in the garden is something we still have to do, but I am looking forward to doing some planting. Your circle looks like it will attract a lot of butterflies when blooming.
I much prefer to Spring clean the garden than Spring clean the house.
What a lovely garden. But that looks like a lot of grass to keep cut.
It goes without saying that I love your stone wall with picket gate... and just look what lies beyond! Pure beauty. The yard is just luscious!
Even though it is early spring everything there is looking so great.
