we planted a couple of plum trees a few years ago and the good news is that they have blossomed this year! the bad news is it’s early spring and i think they probably won’t survive impending frost 🙁

199/365. unidentified purple flower.
a.k.a. phoning it in on the 365 project. but seriously, if anyone knows what it is, let me know.
168/365. delphinium stretching to the sun.
154/365. Lamprocapnos spectabilis ( bleeding heart ).
more blossoms around the snowdeal yard. the bleeding heart legend makes for an interesting read:
“In the story, a young man tried to win the love of a young lady. He did this by giving a pair of rabbits (which are the first two petals of the flower), a pair of slippers (which are the next two petals of the flower), and finally a pair of earrings (which are the last two petals of the flower) to the girl. She continued to reject his affections, and, heart-broken, he pierced his heart with his sword (the middle part of the flower), which caused the bleeding heart.”
153/365. Allium schoenoprasum ( chive ).
keep calm. chive on. maybe chive blossom vinegar should be a thing this year.
151/365. paeonia officinalis ‘dayton’.
more purty peonies in bloom around the yard. i *think* this one is a dayton peony.
