around the garden

They're pretty much impossible to see but there are really baby robins in that nest in that tree in our neighbor's front yard. They're so cute!My hubby took over, since I never got to it, and got and planted some cherry tomatoes in our pots--we already have a couple of little ones growing!I love the phlox--especially when their purples and whites are blooming at the same time as our tiger lilies in their bright orange. The tigers haven't popped quite yet ,but the phlox are just getting going. They're early.We keep milkweed for the butterflies--they love them. I do, too.The passion flowers are also blooming early. They're just the strangest flowers! I'd never seen them until we moved into this house. 30 years ago this winter. wow.
