Painting #5

     Close-up of these amazingly colored pansies... In all my gardening years, I've never planted pansies.  This year will be my first.

Pansies.... the sign of an early Spring

    We all know that it's too early for the nurseries to be stocking up on pansies in mid-March, but nevertheless there they are.  I found this one to be such a beautiful shade, somewhere between orange and fuchsia.
