Bees in the Gravenstein apples and the Brooks plum. Looked like maybe a few migratory bees around today. Pear orchards are blooming and the cherries are just starting to.
An air layering attempt on the old Santa Rosa plum. Harvested the sphagnum moss from the rock seen in the background. Now we wait.
Yes, I could just buy another Santa Rosa plum but then it's not THIS plum. This also ignores the fact that the chances of getting the same plum is near zero because "looks like" is more important than "actually is" in the buy a plant world these days.
Two photos from my yard this morning, one from our Thundercloud #PlumTree and another from what I think is a Pieris japonica (Lily of the Valley Shrub, #JapaneseAndromeda) that we planted a couple years back.
#Spring is starting to Sprung!
It’s come over all dark and rainy this evening. The little pink petals shudder.
Bon les music-head là, j'ai besoin d'aide. J'ai envie d'écouter quelque chose de nouveau, mais qui sonne un peu comme les BB Brunes avant la mue du chanteur, ou Granville, ou Plumtree.
Bref, un truc francophone et bubblegrunge.
Vous avez quelque chose à recommander ?
So many great bands coming out of #Japan these days, and surprisingly you hear their songs being either the intro or outro for #anime There's something brilliant about that strategy.
I'm old so my musical tastes tend to go for the 90s alt-rock, grunge style. And I'm getting a lot of those feels from some of these bands and even though I can't understand 'em (lets face it, couldn't get a lot of the lyrics from the 90s til much later too:)) they still give me those "Goddam, thats a great sounding song!" feels.
This one, from #hitsujibungaku gives me heavy 90s band feels especially from around #Halifax #novascotia , thinking #Sloan #Plumtree (Scott Pilgrim), #Jale , #EricsTrip (Joel Plaskett)
The plum tree in our garden is in full bloom.
