April in the Butterfly Garden


These are some wildflowers youngest son and I are particularly fond of.

This is one of my Encore Azaleas. I love the contrast of the dark pink centers and the pale pink.

My Chinese Wisteria. It was a mass of blooms this year. This is the first time the Wisteria have bloomed so I was really excited to see them blooming this year. Wisteria is one of my favourite plants.


This is one of my regular azaleas. The previous owners had planted them next to the house. Needless to say they had to be moved as they covered up the windows. Now they are along my driveway, except for this one. It's down at the pond because Hubby didn't think it was going to survive being transplanted, so he didn't bother to plant it. Can't blame him too much he did replant the other seventeen. This was as far as I could drag it. I like to pick on him about it because the "puny" azalea I planted is doing better then the others. Probably because it isn't next to the oyster shell drive.
