Purple and Pink

Look at these peony buds!! Aren't they amazing?! They just come back all fat and sweet every year. And the ants go crazy for them.

Any day now they will be giant flowers.

Can you believe that this is the much maligned East Van?

And these purple clovers were donated last summer by Sylvia. I had totally forgotten about them and then BAM they just popped right out of my planter about a week ago, squeezed out through the primroses, just like that.

Thanks Sylvia!

And who could that be hiding in the beans & greens? I do believe that is Irie, waiting, stalking . . . and then when Lysander comes down the stairs. . . POUNCE!! That Irie, he's diabolical!!
