Pink poppy with a honeybee in my #Atlanta backyard on #WorldBeeDay. A good day to notice the pollinators quietly keeping the garden going. Alt-text has the rest. 🐝 #garden #poppy #pollinators

Love-in-a-mist (Nigella damascena) blooming in my #Atlanta front yard. One of my spring favorites: super unique, pretty, and easy to miss when they tuck into the grass like this. The second flower hides up by the stones. 💙 #LoveInAMist #SpringBlooms
Deep red, yellow at the throat, and gone by tomorrow. That's the daylily deal. First bloom from the #daylily roots I planted in March, in my #Atlanta front yard. Blanket flower up top is in on the same warm reds. ❤️ #gardening
Lance-leaf #coreopsis in my #Atlanta backyard. Tiny spider riding a silk thread just off the stem, if you look close. Alt-text has the rest. 🌼 #gardening #nativeplants
First #marigold of the season blooming in my #Atlanta backyard! Love the way that orange jumps out against the spring green, with more buds already coming up behind it. 🧡 #gardening #springblooms
First #poppy of the season — #Atlanta backyard, zone 8a. The next bud's already leaning in, still wrapped in its fuzz. Alt-text has the rest. #garden
Spring in the garden. 🌷 Two tulips, two different moments.
