Tulipa ‘Hakuun’ – Darwin Tulip

This pure-white Tulip adds elegance and beauty to the spring garden. Strong stems make Hakuun a great choice for wind-prone spots.

Thank you Generous Gardners

Walking the Boulevard the flowers are starting to come to life.  Thank you to Generous Gardeners for all their hard work.

A small break in the weather on Wednesday

This week certainly has been dreary.  On Wednesday afternoon there was a small break in weather with help from photoshop.

Stepping into 2023 on a clear and sunny New Year’s Day. Walking in #GloucesterMA

Picnics, promenade, and polar plunge- there were fresh starts everywhere we turned.
