after I wrote the previous post, I went outside and started digging up dandelions from the yard. It's that time of year and they're EVERYWHERE. Did you know there's a special tool? There is! Of course there are more dandelions than I'll ever be able to get even with a special tool, but still I try. I didn't pull this one up because it looked so pretty in the middle of these purple flowers.
The inside of a tulip! I love the red here and the wiggly spider-leg stamens.
This is Leopard's Bane! This particular one is spent, but I love the curl of the petals and the yellow light. They look good in bud, in bloom, and beyond.
Pink azaleas and the last picture before I put the camera away and resumed dandelion warfare. (The Dandelion War only lasted about 4 minutes, post-photography.)
"get even with a special tool" is what stood out to me...hopefully Spring will be here before Summer starts?
