Frost on the Pumpkin [or should I say tulips]?


Well everyone has gone and done it, so to speak. Many people got the spring fever to set out plants and plant their containers, well knowing it was too early. Guess what, it's going to happen! The frost is coming so everything is going to get it and get it hard by the looks of things.
There goes the apple crop for this year. Our's have bloomed out pretty enough to think about them making fruit in a few months, just as if it were mid-May. I'm afraid getting nipped is the only thing in their future.
Woe to those who set out that garden... the frost queen is coming! Of all the things I can't save, there is one thing that I will try to save. That is the columbine here at the front step. I have a bucket I'm putting over it each night. For the next four days it's going to be my personal mission to save this one flower that gives me joy when i leave my home each day in the spring and I see it's spikey little behind of lavender waving to me in the breeze. So best of luck to me on that account.
And here I will post a photo of my bleeding heart which I can only see dieing in the next night so I took several photos of it for memory and wallpaper purposes.
Enjoy!
