A high-angle shot of a circular arrangement of small, bright green columbine leaves with rounded edges, with water droplets sitting on the top leaves. The image is tightly cropped. Background is blurred with dark soil and blurred green foliage. The leaves have defined veins, with contrast between light and shadow.

A close-up ground-level angled view captures the early stages of bearded iris plants sprouting from rich brown soil sprinkled with moss. The plants have long, pointed leaves with hints of burgundy near the base. A weathered wooden fence runs horizontally in the background, partially obscured by newer plant growth, creating a scene of renewal and growth against a rustic backdrop.

Behold, our beautiful #pink #rhododendron bush in bloom 😍

The image is a multi-panel collage showcasing various views of pink rhododendron flowers. The top left & bottom left panels feature close-up views of individual blossoms, revealing petals that transition from deep pink at the bud to a softer, almost white shade near the center. Dewdrops adorn the petals. The large panel on the right displays a wider view of a rhododendron bush, densely covered with blooms & buds, amid green leaves & tangled branches silhouetted against a pale sky.

#Yellow 🌼
#Crocuses.
Mini #daffodils.
Hardy garden #chrysanthemum.
In our South Saanich gardens 😊

A close up of three yellow crocus buds emerging from the soil in a garden. The buds are tightly closed & covered in tiny rain water droplets. The green shoots of the plant stand straight, contrasting with the pale brown soil.

A small cluster of bright yellow mini daffodils, some fully open & some still in bud, covered with rain water droplets.

Close-up shot looking directly into the center of a chrysanthemum flower. The petals are a pale, creamy green hue, densely packed & slightly curved inwards, creating a rounded shape emphasizing the flower center. Some petals exhibit signs of fading, with tips turning brown, signaling the flower's aging process. The flower fills the whole image, with the background only lightly blurred.

English #primroses bounced back to life, after snow thaw.

It's edible. It tastes very bitter & best mixed with other ingredients. Roots & leaves are good to make into tea - analgesic, anti-spasmodic, diuretic & expectorant properties.
