              Just a couple of quick ones I took early this morning before I headed off to work. The forsythias are putting on a good show this year and I love the way the early morning sun lights them up as it shines down the garden. With the early morning dew sparkling on the grass and the polyanthus 'Crescendo' also putting on a good show this year along the lawn edge, it got the day off to a good start. :)

                  @Trunky your garden seems to bloom before ours. The forsythia here is only showing tiny buds.

                  Pulmonaria sounds better :snork:

                        This area is right outside the kitchen window. :)
