With the long winter past, and spring that moves in slow motion this year I could not help but notice the colors of the blossoms we are experiencing so far. The early perennials have been breathtaking. I am fortunate enough to travel around mid New England for my job; I am amazed at the show of colors that we have been given this year and the intensity of them.
Witch hazel, Dogwood trees, Forsythia, Azaleasand the Lilac bush have all been stunning this year. I can’t wait to see what the woodlands have to offer. Starting this week, the columbine’s should emerge from their long winters rest. Then gardens and forest will then each contribute their part throughout the year..
The blooms are temporary, actors in Mother Nature’s ongoing show of life. They dazzle us with their performance, leave us in awe and then move on. We will enjoy watching these changes throughout the year and right into the fall.
As a great philosopher of New England once wrote……….
“It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.”
Henry David Thoreau
