This past week there has been a significant change in the garden.  New shoots are appearing everywhere both in the flower beds and on the various shrubs and trees.  I captured both the lilac and spirea coming into leaf.

Around the winter heather the delicate fern like foliage of the painted daisy is appearing (pyrethrum) along with aubretia (rockery plant) plus the tulips are finally coming into bud (which survived being eaten by the deer).  

I also spotted the red tips of a peony coming through and new foliage on my seibold maple.  

In the rockery garden too, there is an abundance of shoots around the miniature daffodils and I was happy to see a couple of primulas in bloom; a double yellow one and a single rose coloured one.
