Winter Garden

In winters garden
our native Oregon Grape
gives us hope of spring.


Ah, the joy of walking about in a mid-January garden and seeing buds forming on the tall Oregon Grape.

That is a lovely picture of a beautiful plant. Glad the frost is gone. Yesterday a squirrel took an almond right out of my hand. Can you believe it?

Those little snap-shot promises of spring, stirrings in the undergrowth are so magical.

Thanks for sharing,
