Anticipation…

| First Year: A Garden Sleeps |

| Second Year: A Garden Creeps |
Gardening is a little
like being an orchestra conductor. Planning ahead, a gardener plants
bulbs in the fall with the idea that hopefully tulips will bloom at the same
time as the spring flowering trees. Working to get them to perform at the
same time with a gorgeous crescendo early spring is the ultimate goal.
But like a conductor, a gardener never knows if the weather will hold with no
late freezes that kill the blossoms. If the wind will knock all the pedals
off and if the audience will even notice this brief performance.
Each year is different in the garden as is each concert.

| Third Year: A Garden Leaps |
The garden
usually will grow and be stronger each year as will the instrument players
become better players. Anticipation grows; will everything perform at
the same time this year? The following pictures show growth of my garden
that is now 6 years old. Submitted by Stafford Gardener.
