I wish it will rain soon.  I am tired of watering the plants everyday.  My older daughter planted some corn, pumpkin and acorn squash.

April Blooms

This amaryllis flower is one my favorite things in the garden. We were carefully watching it and waiting for it to bloom. It smells so good.   It was my birthday on April 20th and Suresh got me these tulips. I was very happy because they reminded me of when we were in Holland in 2017 for the tulip festival.   We have a rose bush with lots of pink roses and this is one of them.  Yellow and white iris came too.

We have been enjoying the great weather the last few days. Sushma and I relaxed on the deck in the afternoons, where she practiced reading Telugu. The weather is so nice, some of the flowers think it is already Spring! But, it is going to freeze this weekend, so we brought in a lot of the daffodil buds.  Sometimes it's funny when Sushma struggles to read Telugu. All our daffodil buds! So excited for them to bloom. Our Chinese Fringe Flower tree is also blooming and is very beautiful. I bought it a long time ago at Lowe's on sale.  Chinese Fringe Flower Chinese Fringe Flower tree This week we also made a trip to get some free donuts from Heavenly Donut Company! Sushma had a coupon for a half dozen donuts - it was so hard to decide which ones to get. I love donuts, and I love them even more when they are free! I used to be scared to eat things like donuts, but now I realize life is short so I should enjoy. So happy about donuts!

We meant to post earlier but have been busy enjoying all the beautiful blooms in our garden. Today the weather was so great, we spent almost 4 hours gardening! We did some weeding, brought all of the plants back outside from their winter hiding places, and planted some blueberry bushes. We had blueberry bushes before but Suresh got rid of them during the garden remodeling. We didn't even plan to get the blueberry bushes but got excited when we saw them at Lowe's. We accidentally bought a variety called Pink Lemonade Blueberries, so we'll see how they turn out!  Hopefully, we get some yummy blueberries from our garden!   Our new blueberry bushes  Our bushes planted in their new homes We are loving all the flowers in our garden and around town. My favorite that is blooming now is our pink dogwood tree. So beautiful! We also have white dogwood, yellow irises, and the daffodils are still blooming. Our apple tree is blooming, but apparently you have to have at least 2 apple tr...
