Bleeding hearts have long been a favorite spring blossom for me.
Our plant has gotten so large that now we can enjoy picking in some of the cascades of delicate pink bangles without making a dent in the flowerbed.
Lilacs are even more of a favorite - both for sight and scent. But their strong perfume is causing problems for Elsa and me this year. This one little branch sat in the next room for only an evening before causing enough trouble to have to be enjoyed only outdoors - and from a distance - for the rest of the season. We will continue our allergy treatments and hope for the year when we can once again enjoy more of the facets of springtime.
An old quilt from Grandpa and Grandma's house also made a large spring "blossom" as it aired out on the deck railing.
