oh the abundance!

snowballs, with their corpulent fluffiness exude the tone of the moment. the rampant billowing spring growth, luscious greenness and flowers make you want to wrap your arms around this plant and give it a big kiss for the pleasure it evokes.other bits about the garden are lilacs, the buds bursting on the blue ceanothus, kolkwitzia (aptly named beauty bush), columbine, chive flowers, species geraniums, red twig dogwood flowers, weigela and a mess of other stuff.
