The first 2016 walk around the garden.
The snowdrops are the first to bloom.
Crocuses are also out.
The cowslips and primroses are greening up already.
Daffodils are just peeking out.
Some rodent damage in the lawn.
And something has almost destroyed this dianthus.
Clematis buds…
forsythia buds…
and the magnolia is full of promise.
The shade master seed pods need to be cleaned up.
And the willow branches. Raking will be job #1.
A new gardening season begins!
