It just wouldn’t be April without a photo essay of the status of the garden. Here’s where everything stands right now, after last week’s drenching rains: herb blossoms, shrubs in bloom, and perennials building up their flowers.

  4. Gorgeous! I especially love the shot of the creeping thyme. It’s often grown in cracks in paving here to soften the effect of the stone. The scent is suppose to be released when the plant is bruised by people walking by, but who could bear to step on something so full of life?
