The Japanese maples have begun to unfurl their leaves. The tender new leaves have rosy rust shading that foreshadow their autumnal future.
The morning dew glistens on the the azaleas.
A patio lion patrols our garden pathways.
Even the catapillars add color to the morning. The lion was urged to consume the invader, but he declined the offer.
A white pansy, seemingly a tailored floral expression when considered beside the white azaleas gauzy ruffled displays.
We are having a fun and busy weekend; I'll be posting our adventures in separate posts!
(PS: It hit a record setting 88 degrees on Friday. Hoo boy....)

Thanks Jill, a wonderful break in the garden. The flower pictures are so amazing and detailed. Talented Tiggie is Tremendous and so regal on patrol.
I just love seeing the colors of the azaleas! They look especially brilliant this year around here. I enjoy looking at the happy little faces on pansies, too, but that white fella is wearing a bit of a blank expression, isn't he?
Doc & I were just discussing this afternoon how early summer arrived this year! I had to drive home from church with the a/c on mega-blast!
your azaleas are beautiful and your garden lion is a very handsome fellow, even the crawly critter is colorful. enjoyed it all! love, mom S.
A very pleasant spot indeed. I like that "patio lion" of yours!
