Dear Liza,
Spring doesn’t officially start until next month, but many of the flowers here are ready and willing.
Camellias are always early to the party, and this multi-colored trio at Laurelhurst Park is taller than me and blooming like crazy.
Playing nicely alongside is this amazing striped one. It looks like peppermint!
I do not know the name of this spindly, skinny tree, but it is always one of the earliest to bloom. I love its tiny pink flowers against the dark green of the fir tree, a hundred feet over head.
Warm weather is due this week, and I’ll be out in it. But I love the soggy, as well.
Love,
Grandma Judy
Dear Liza
