Under the Solano Sun

I was wandering around my garden enjoying the glorious spring blooms. Here are 3 of my favorites. This beautifulpelargonium is at least 10 years old, greeting visitors on the front walkway.

The first home I ever owned was a new-build patio home in a new subdivision built on what had been an old almond orchard. The front yard landscaping that came with it contained a tiny patch of sod, a Modesto Ash and an oleander.

I'm having an affair with sugar snap peas. Every year, around this time, we meet in the garden. I often think should we go inside?, but many times we don't make it into the house.

Backyard super bloom Roses, wisteria and pink kaboom Jepson Prairie too...

Doug and Rose were avid gardeners, their last name was even Gardener. They had been able to cultivate that passion in their children, Spade and April. As the spring planting season approached, the family decided to take a trip to the garden center to stock up on supplies.
