Garden Journal...      Beginning of April 

Crabapple


It's hard to say who will win the battle for the martin house. The Martins are very interested, but the sparrows are relentless at nest building. When the martins go away for a while, the sparrows go to work.

 I am so happy to see this Oriental Lily Sprout I had just about given up on this Asiatic Lily sprout

When the crabapple tree in our front yard budded out last week, it was dark pink so even though it had been labeled as a white crabapple, I thought it would be pink, which is really what I had wanted.  Alas, when the buds open the flowers are  white. But the white blossoms are lovely, and the tree seems healthy, so I really have nothing to complain about.
