Just. Because. They’re. Gorgeous.
Azaleas. Butterflies. The whole garden looks like a jewel box today, with jewels scattered about against green velvet. It may be cloudy and gray, and I may be bundled in a sweater and tempted to turn the heater on inside the office, but these pictures still shout “spring!”
All photos by me, Jeanne Grunert, taken in my garden today.
