We have this ugly Red Oak tree at the end of the driveway, up near the road. It’s ugly because the branches are all out of shape. I guess the weather has done a number on it over the years. The majority of the tree is intact, but…well, I’ll just show you with the photos […]
Freak Hail Storm In Hartford, CT
Yesterday, I was humming away, working outside and minding my own business when the sky started getting dark. I kept on working until the sky was a little too dark for my liking. I grabbed my tools and walked into the garage. About five minutes later, the sky fell. It was crazy. The wind picked […]
Pinkish White Knockout Roses
I was walking around up on the hill yesterday when I noticed the roses starting to bloom. It’s amazing that they are even starting to flower with all the rain we have been having. Actually, I think the rain kind of stopped. It’s just cloudy now and really not all that bad. It’s good walking […]
The Blooming of a Peonies
So apparently the Peonies are in bloom right about now. We have some very colorful pink ones over in the front/side garden. They really are some thick and substantial flowers. Just wait until you see these pictures. The larger (more bloomed) flowers are so pink that the camera couldn’t get the color right. They almost […]
Iris, Hardy Geranium, Perennial Flax Flower And Some More
Okay, let’s go. I have some photos of the most recent flowers that have bloomed ’round these here parts. They are pretty good shots. Make sure you click and then click again on the pink Rose picture. You can see a nice looking insect and spider web on it. It’s pretty cool. In this batch, […]
Mountain Bluet, Bailey’s Gold, A Red Rose And A Dianthus
I have a few more photos of flowers for you. I have three identified, but am having some difficulty with the fourth. I just found a website that helped me identify the Mountain Bluet. I already knew what the Bailey’s Gold was, along with the Rose. The last one is a little troubling. I have […]
Purple and White Bearded Iris
This is becoming a little tradition for me. Every year, I take some nice photos of the first Bearded Iris to bloom. This purple and white beauty bloomed yesterday. A few more came to life today and I expect the rest will start showing their colors tomorrow. When the entire row is bloomed, I’ll take […]
Some More Spring Flowers And Flower Buds
After we took some pictures of the bird nests this afternoon, I went around and got a few more photos of some flowers that already bloomed and some that are just about ready to bloom. I know I can identify one, think I can identify two and can’t identify the last. I am getting better […]
Some Late Spring Budding Plants
During our early morning lawn stroll yesterday, we noticed a whole bunch of new budding plants. The most exciting of the crew were the Iris and the rose bushes. I have to tell you, once the rose bushes start blooming, things really start to living up around here. My favorite plant of all time still […]
Spring Time In The Northeast
This is just another one of my documentation posts. I thought it would be nice to show the status of flowers budding as well as the grass and how far the leaves on the trees have come. One thing to note is that we primarily have Oak trees on this road. I have been doing […]
