April 28

One of my new roses is blooming. The blossom doesn’t look as healthy as I was hoping it’d be, but maybe it just needs to establish itself a bit more first. The garden on the whole is doing pretty well. The plants are starting to fill in a little, and it looks more flush. Even the desert rose, which I thought for sure was a goner after last winter, is growing new leaves. I’m enjoying the garden this year.
