My garden has never been more beautiful than it is

My garden has never been more beautiful than it is this year. I am so grateful to be able to be surrounded my so many flowers.

Yesterday I planted lettuce and basil seeds in pots. It's a bit late to be planting lettuce here; it tends to bolt in April, but it has been a cooler March than usual, so I am hopeful that we can get a decent crop of lettuce this year. I want lots of salad to eat!

This is definitely one of my favorite scents in th

This is definitely one of my favorite scents in the garden.

When I was 14, inspired by @victoriamagazine, I made myself a lilac crown and wore it to school while wearing a white dress. I was able to enjoy the perfume of the lilacs all day.

I've got a new post up on the blog, talking about how we saved money last week, the meals we made using what we had on hand (I'm not going grocery shopping), and what I'm planting in the garden. I'm so grateful it's spring and I have the chance to plant a little more than usual in the garden.

In bloom: Drift rose (the red one), white and yellow daffodils, iris, and lilacs.
The first tree on the left is a peach tree. Our former peach died and I replaced it about a year and a half ago. It will be a few years before this tree is large enough to bear fruit.

The large tree is a Mission Fig. They give fruit twice in the year, unlike other fruit trees and even unlike other figs.

The last tree on the right is a self-fertile almond. It grows to 15 feet tall. I planted this a few years ago to replace my plum tree. Last year it gave me a small handful of almonds. This year it might give me two handfuls.

To the left of this tree is a large artichoke plant. I should get around 4 artichokes from it this year before the heat sets in and makes them flower in May while they are still tiny.
