Mother's Day Presents


White flowers
The white flowers on the low growing quince started blooming last week. We've been calling this shrub Graham's plant. It is quieter because it grows lower to the ground. It flowered first. Brady thinks this one has stronger smelling flowers.

Not pink, but peach, colored flowers

The second quince shrub has flowered in the last few days. The flowers are all over the branches, very full, and PEACH colored. I thought this shrub was going to be pink colored. Peach is a variety of pink, yes, but..... The second shrub is Georgia's plant, one with Georgia Peach colored flowers. It flowered later, it was louder in color and height. Lots of subtle meaning here.

It is a pretty day now. The sun is out and the clouds are puffy and white. I am not crying yet about it being Mother's Day. I guess flowers are my present from my kids. Very pretty. Thanks.
