Flowers are Blooming


I love springtime in Virginia! And we're in a good place to enjoy it. From our windows and deck we can enjoy the dogwoods, and we planted bulbs in the yard so we have flowers.

We had enough daffodils and wild tulips to harvest a few for cut flowers. Deer don't like to eat these, although the more popular Dutch tulips are favorites of deer and don't stand a chance here in the mountains. Wild tulips are not as tall but have multiple blooms. This is the first year we've had them and I'm glad I found them.
