Yard stuff

We have a lot of things growing in our yard. A lot. Over the winter, when most of it was dormant, it was hard to know what was dead, what would come back, and which were weeds. Now that things are greening up, we’re starting to see some cool plants and flowers blossom.

On the eaves of the forest is a patch of… something. Maybe these are weeds, but they look cool.

We have some enormous flower beds along the sidewalk and courtyard, and a gazillion tiny flowers are appearing.

I was picking dandelions (they’re everywhere) and it seemed like a couple of honeybees were following me around. They seemed to like the dandies, and got a little frustrated when I kept pulling them up and tossing them into a bucket. One of my little friends gave up on the dandelions and decided to go for this little white flower instead (see him just right of center?).

Now we’re deciding which plants to pull. There are a lot of dead and half-dead ones, and a lot of others that are just plain ugly (and may very well be long-time weeds). Ahh, yard work…
