Spring teased on Monday, with temperatures hovering in the mid-50s, a great break from more frigid weather last week. It never ceases to amaze me how our trees and shrubs withstand all this winter yo-yoing, made all the more intense as climate patterns shift in response to global warming. Too cold? Too warm? They adapt. At least, so far. Certainly better than I do.
I took a break from client projects Monday afternoon to take a few photos of the stalwart buds on our new cherry tree out front and more buds on the overgrown azaleas—or are they rhododendrons?—by our back door, and to admire tiny plants peeking out of the moss in our rock garden. Their resilience always gives me hope.
Daylight Savings Time starts this weekend. Spring is but a few weeks away. Here’s a little taste of seasonal rejuvenation to savor during this first week of March in the Northern Hemisphere. Enjoy.
