The Secret Garden

Though most of the country is frozen deep in winter, outside my door the hillside and secret paths are splattered with the awakening of springtime.  Quietly our property has been transformed in to a dreamy and very colorful secret garden.

baby pinks

Fuscia  

Yellow and Green

Birds of Paradise

lurking in the pathways

Creeping over walls

scarlet pokers 

Droopy Pepper Tree's

Coral

Abundant Citrus

Dreamy Gauguin like images in the twilight...

I suspect not all was quiet over the holidays...

Wise Buddah

Proud Foo Dogs

Muted Duck

Majestic and Rusty

The protectors dry out in the fading sunshine.
