Tooele Winter Wonderland

I knew as soon as I planted my flower seeds and color bowls winter would return. I guess I have lived in the frigid northern hinterlands long enough to not trust those first warm, apparent spring days. They are just to taunt you before the next snowfall arrives. I try and watch my wisteria. It seems to have a sense of when spring really arrives and waits until then to start putting out its leaves. I saw the leaves budding. Even the clematis was starting to put forth flower buds so I decided that we have passed the last snowfall and I could safely embark on my spring gardening. Only a day after I planted my color bowls and put the seeds in the ground I get word that another winter storm is approaching. I did get my large color bowls in the house and covered the smaller ones on the patio so I think they will be good. I just hope the wisteria didn't freeze. It has gotten so large I would have to lose it at this point.
Well, here are the pictures of what I saw when I left for work this morning.

I need to thank Jeannie and Britney Ruddy for the beautiful tulips they brought for Easter. We have been enjoying their blooms for the past week. The following pictures are of the flowers that are now blooming in the yard.

Elder Jordan Gibby - Pictures

I thought I had these pictures posted and when I looked at the blog they weren't there. I guess that I am getting senile early in my old age.
