parley view parsnip. . . a little spring

Since Tucson didn't have a winter this year,  spring has come super early.

In fact it has been spring for over a month. The wild flowers are blooming.

In fact I am still harvesting tomatoes from last years plants.

I am gong to buy two new tomato plants today 

and maybe my second Meyers Lemon tree.

.

 Fruit and blooms on the Meyers Lemon tree.

This tree blooms and has fruit all year.

I just finished the last of these sweet lemons I picked last week.

I can't wait till these ripen.

.

 Not sure you can see all the blooms and still some fruit peeking out

of the Tangelo tree.

.

 Sweet Orange tree in back of the Tangelo,

still has plenty of fruit.

.

 Tangelo up high that we still need to pick.

.

 The one I picked and ate this morning.

The fruit of a tangelo is bright eye searing orange !

A lovely way to start the day.

.

 I planted some tiny Prickley Pear pads in some very tiny pots I had.

Forgetting they held some tiny Grape Hyacinths bulbs from last spring. They grew around the cactus but stopped at this height. I am hoping to see some blooms soon.

.

 I usually cut the grass every week but it is growing so fast that I am going to cut it 

twice a week ! It is a jungle out there.

thehamish has to really lift his short little legs up trying to walk through it.

But he usually just charges through full speed anways, he is so funny.

And... here is your pretty to start the week

Of Course !
