A happy return

Last summer we had a patio put in. The decision happened quickly and I had to scramble to move some plants that were in the way. It was the wrong time of year to be transplanting. There were no beds prepared to move the plants into. I gave away a lot of perennials.

I hastily put a few oriental poppies by the back garage. Within a week they were brown and dead looking.

But this weekend I found them coming up! They are some tough plants. I love nature's will to survive.
