4/6

delaying the isabella gardner pix one more day
because i found this yesterday in my garden,
one of my favorite spring surprises

last year there were none
:(
i think the burrowing r-a-t-s might have disturbed it
and i feared it was gone forever.
by 2021
the plant had grown to 4 blooms
(bottom thumbnail)
now it seems that i am back to one
{sigh}
but i am grateful for that

the top thumbnail
was from a trip last year to the bbg
