After the Rain Showers of May 10.

April was a very dry month for us and May started out to be as well.  Today storms started moving through. The rain barrel is filled up again.  Last night i finally planted the forsythia that Joseph got me.  I'm a little concerned that they are calling for frost by mid next week.  Last Sunday i purchased some herbs (basil, parsley, rosemary) and i have planted them already... was probably too soon... oh well, if we get frost, i will cover them up.

Garden overview- May 10 after the rain showers

One of the remaining tulips... with raindrops :-)

Queen of the Night tulip that's on its way out makes for an interesting raindrop canvas.

I got a new rosemary plant this year.

Columbine time.

Lot's o' Rain

We have been getting our April showers in May this year. So the plants are growing like crazy and with the cool temperatures the tulips are still hanging on. This photo was taken on Saturday when we had a spot of sunshine. The weather is forecast to be 20 degrees warmer tomorrow... which will be tough on the plants. I guess 20 degrees warmer is better than 20 degrees colder.
