Here's what's happening in Kristy's yard...
I am unsure what these are, but they have grown along the foundation of my house. Does anyone know their identity?
And here's what I've found happening in my own yard and woods this April...
I have 4 or 5 small Forsythia bushes in full bloom. These were started years ago as cuttings taken from the enormous bush I used to play beneath in my parent's yard.
Bleeding Hearts, one of my favorite plants, are emerging from the cold soil.
These wild yellow violets grow in the woods.
And April is Fiddlehead fern season! I've already been foraging.
Join us on May 15th for our next Bloom Day post!

It's so much fun to see little heads popping up out of the ground. Excitement! Adventure!
The bleeding hearts pic is really neat! My mom had one of those she carted around for years from house to house to house!
Nice blooms! Yay for spring! Your mystery plant is vinca minor (periwinkle). :)
I was going to say that the pretty purple groundcover is periwinkle, also known as Vinca minor, but I see that Wendy beat me to it. We have lots of this in Washington State. It also comes in white, but I'm partial to the lavender. :0)
