A Guthrie Garden Spectacular (Spring Edition)

Since Mother Nature has decided that rain is a good thing, we shall endure it for a few more days.  In the meantime, I wanted to share some Spring pics from my Mama’s spectacular garden.  Mother Nature has been hard at work crafting some beautiful blossoms for the birds and bees, and the people, too! Here’s a look around the yard this time of year:

Fuchsia petunia, pink double petunia, and pink impatiens

That’s a quick glimpse of May in my Mama’s garden.  As soon as things dry out around here, I’ll be back with more updates from my garden and around the house projects!  Stay tuned (and stay dry!)
