Or should I say "Five-sythia?" This is the same bush that I posted yesterday, just from a different angle. It was either last year or the year before that I pruned it way back. It gets very big and unruly if I let it grow. I should probably plan some more pruning this year in an attempt to shape it more.
The forsythia is at its peak right now.
We're still waiting, and hoping (and wishin', and prayin'), for the landscape guy to show up. He usually does, right about the time I give up on him.
I love that forsythia. We had a huge one in Guilford that I had to trim every year or it would completely block the deck stairs. Amazing how quickly it filled in again.
ReplyDeletehaa haaa, that's a great song :)
ReplyDeleteThat photo of Carrouges looks like there should be a princess (and I guess a prince!) living inside! I need to see where in France to find that one! Can one go inside?
ReplyDeleteI just searched Carrouges, France and I couldn't find your view of the castle at all. ??? Mary - OR
ReplyDeletemary, try looking for "château de Carrouges" and see what comes up. It's in Normandy and, yes, visitors can go inside.
