Tuesday Treasured Tidbit #9 – Snapdragons

Tuesday Treasured Tidbit #9 – Snapdragons

Thanks to computer issues (quite possibly pilot error), I’m posting my Tuesday Treasured Tidbit on Wednesday but better late than never, right?

Last week, I was delighted to see my first snapdragon blooms of the season!

It’s a little thing but to see these lovely ladies appear after a winter of erratic weather, when I was fairly certain I had doomed them to an early death by planting them in late September, was a treasure indeed.

Enjoy your 24 hours!

My backyard is fairly barren yet this soon-to-be Spring. But, what I do have available are beautiful seedpods.

This is just a common weed leftover from the fall but I love the star like shape of the burst open pods and the fluffiness of the yet-to-empty-out pods. I know I’ll pay the price for leaving it in place through the winter, but the birds have loved picking at it through the season. Enjoy.
