April was a perfect spring like month for us here in the Bay Area. Warm temperatures in the 60s, 70s, and even 80s meant that the garden was waking up and starting to put on its stellar floral show. Here is a look at what started blooming in my April Bay Area garden.
Azaleas and Camellias
Pelargonium and geraniums
Columbines
Nasturtiums
Fuchias
Chives. I love using darling chive flowers in salads and omelets
Roses. A few bushes already blooming.
My favorite climbing rose Berries and Cream always puts on a stellar show in early spring
I couldn’t resist making a couple of rose bouquets with my first flush of spring booms
Bearded Iris just started blooming a couple days ago
Hope you had an awesome April. Looking forward to a marvelous May!
Countdown to Mother’s Day! Sunday, May 13th
May is one of my favorite months. The garden puts on a spectacular show and May is also the month when we celebrate Mother’s Day. This year Mother’s Day is on Sunday, May 13th.
