Nice weather has finally arrived here in western Pennsylvania, and everyone I see around town has emerged from winter hibernation with a huge grin on their face. After such a long, cold winter, I think we all need some time to soak it all in. My family was able to spend a few hours at our old garden last weekend cleaning up the beds from excess leaves, putting out a bit of compost as mulch, and cutting back perennials and sticks.
I stopped over another evening, just after a rain. I was able to take these photos just as the evening golden hour began...

The curb strip planting, which we called the Front Woodland, is filling up with more crocuses and lots of tulip foliage. The ground cover around it all is the no maintenance Sedum 'Acre'.
This gorgeous flower is Helleborus orientalis of the Golden Lotus strain from Terra Nova.
