Mosaic Monday


Winter was very hard on Musashi's Garden.

The lime trees did not survive along with the red and gold Ixora.

We weren't sure what Spring would bring us, but we aren't disappointed.

Here are a few of the Spring blooms in Musashi's Garden.



Blooming in Musashi's Garden


A little of everything: ranunculus, roses, wild flowers, dragon lady crossvine,
freesia, dianthus, Mexican lavender, hibiscus, camellia.

We will replant the Ixora -- eventually. We love that they bloom year round.
And there are more citrus trees in our future.

Happy Mosaic Monday. Be sure to visit Mary and the other participants.

I'm especially partial to freesias - they fill the garden with such a robust fragrance!

I was just scrolling through my list and saw that I missed this. What a gorgeous mosaic you made. It made my heart feel lighter to see so much in bloom. Even though winter may have walloped Musashi's garden it is coming back, petal by petal. I hope you and Mr. Dragon and blooming too.

Your blooms are beautiful! Wish I had half of them! Spring is coming slowly but surely here.. a few tulips, creeping phlox, and a few buds on my clematis'..another month should be very colorful I hope!
Great mosaic!

Oh how lovely! This makes me want to run out & purchase a peach colored rose immediately. What a gorgeous color! I have yellow & red & white ones but no peach.
Beautiful mosaic!!

I wish I could grow a lime tree here in western Canada. I'll bet the blossoms smell amazing on them.
