It's been a big month for my yard and since my
Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day post in
March. It's time for a monthly check-in! A month ago I was still awaiting my first
crocus blooms. Now in April, they've come and gone, and other much bigger perennials are waking up and taking off quickly. I only have a couple plants blooming - and they are both new additions that were already in bloom at the store, so that's kinda cheating.

Other than blooms, I have a lot of progress with other plants emerging. Not just a
tiny sprout here and there, but actual growth and some real movement! My much anticipated Hosta 'Sum and Substance' are finally waking up too - I guess the bigger varieties sleep a little longer because 'Patriot' has been emerging
for a while now.
