This was a hideous winter for us in the Mid-Atlantic, but the flowers are better for it.

First flowers in our garden this spring here in Omaha.

Some pink and white hyacinth growing in front of dried, brown foliage and a green boxwood bush.

Blossom of a young Black Cherry tree, / #Prunus serotina /, from the Rose family. This is native to my area.

A cluster of small white flowers hanging from a tree. Each flower has five white petals and a yellow center.

SoonBloomScrolling. Lilacs, service berry, and wax currant.

A photo showing lilac buds. Small clusters of purple buds with some small green leaves around them.

A photo showing newly emerged green leaves and red/pink buds on the tip of a slender red woody stem.

A photo showing new wax currant leaves and some pink and white flower blossoms that are not open. The flowers are long and tubular. The background out of focus is a large rock face.

Some of last falls transplanted things. A Mountain Bluet, phlox with peonies, and a big nursery pot full of daffodils.

A photo showing a transplanted Centaurea montana, the perennial cornflower, mountain cornflower, bachelor's button, montane knapweed or mountain bluet plant growing. It was dug from another location about six months ago. It's leaves are green, oval, and a little fuzzy.

A photo showing new phlox and peonies plant growth. The phlox leaves agre green and a little pointy, the peonies leaves are bright red and still in the spiky stage.

A photo showing a very large round black plastic nursery pot with about 2 dozen daffodil plants starting to grow.

Late?
Not sure. They’ve been messing with the clocks again…and given my already tumultuous relationship with time…well…it wouldn’t surprise me if this wasn’t even today’s fact!
It’s not?
Ok
I need another fact.
I’ll be back!

Unlike females, male #bumblebees don’t perform learning flights on leaving the nest. They fly directly away never looking back.
They do however perform learning flights on leaving #flowers to memorise location.

Echinacea purpurea - purple coneflower, Monarda fistulosa - Bergamot bee balm, and Agastache foeniculum - Anise Hyssop all seem to be growing back good.

A photo of purple coneflower plant starting to grow. It's leaves are red and spiky looking emerging from last years dead leaves and stems that remain.

A photo showing Bergamot bee balm growing out of last years dead stems and leaves. The leaves are small and dark red/green with rounded lobed edges.

A photo showing new growth of an Anise hyssop plant. The leaves are sort of purple colored fading to green sometimes but a couple of leaves are mostly green.

"Escorpion Con Floracion" - Spanish for "Scorpion With Flowering." Pretty self-explanatory, though I should note that I can't think of any other artwork that combines a scorpion with flowers. Currently in a private collection. Gouache and watercolors, 2020.

Blue/black stylized scorpion surrounded by multicolored flowers on red background.

Daffodils on a damp end of the month.

A photo showing 3 yellow with orange center daffodil blossoms from the perspective at the ground looking up. There is a post with beam beyond the flowers. The sky is cloudy with some blue patches full of wispy clouds. There are the tops of poplar trees in the lower left and the top of a silver birch tree in the upper right. Some of the daffodil leaves protrude up from the bottom of the photo. The flowers are back lit with filtered sun.

“They didn’t burn witches, they burned women” - A visit to the gravesites of the women (and few men) who were unjustly persecuted and executed during the Salem Witch Trials in Salem, Massachusetts, USA, circa 1692-1693. A mar on American history in the sea of cruel treatment of women that occurred worldwide from the 15th to 18th centuries where the world of patriarchy and misogyny was used to control women, torturing and murdering those who didn’t comply or questioned commonly accepted gender roles. A time that feels we are still recovering from, that we’re still seeking the release from the silent oppression of, that we’re dangerously close to recreating in modern day society.

Let’s not forget where we’ve been so we can better guide next steps of where we want to go!
