Spring has come a little late to northern Indiana -- we had snow less than a week ago -- but I think it's finally here to stay. Monday morning was foggy, and I decided to take my coffee cup and camera up
to the deck. Most species are budding nicely now, and I snapped a few pictures.
 |
| My one-and-only Japanese black pine; and, no, that's coffee in the travel cup. |
 |
| Buds swelling on the JBP, Pinus thunbergii. |
 |
| Hybrid yew, Taxus x media densiformis. (Forgive the quality of the resolution, please.) |
 |
| Spirea, Spirea japonica. |
 |
| Ponderosa pine, Pinus ponderosa; a personal favorite. |
 |
| Common boxwood, Buxus sempervirens. |
 |
| Bald cypress, Taxodium distichum. The apparent inverse taper is an artifact of the photo. |
And then there's this rooted cutting, that's ahead of most the rest!
 |
| Hedge maple, Acer campestre. |

Love this time of year. But would rather have Guinness in the cup ;-)
ReplyDeleteI hear you! ;-) But then I save Guinness for later in the day. Morning belongs to coffee.
