{Our Carolina Jasmine}

One of the most beautiful vines is the Carolina Jasmine Gelsemium sempervirens with its fragrant yellow flowers.

This species is by far not as invasive as e.g. wisterias are.

Very lovely sight when blooming like here seen on April 10.

There is a bird house right behind it and often the Caroline Wren lives in it.

What a romantic place for raising their young!

To the right you see our Wood Trail and to the left is our Gazebo...

Do you have a Carolina Jasmine?

{Our Blue Wisteria Blossoms}

By mid April our Blue Wisterias were filling the air with their sweet fragrance and they have climbed up the trees till the very top.

Don't you love those trusses of beautiful and highly fragrant flowers?

Cascading down a tree, you can see the water of the creek to the right and the road in the center...

Again the creek is visible to the right and also the road.

Another tree to the left is being filled with this rather invasive climber.

This is our bridge across the creek; one of 3.

The balusters are from Vintage Woodworks, Texas

Do you have any wisteria climbers?

{Our White Pansies & Indian Hawthorn}

Alongside our driveway, we do have Fiberglass Window Boxes hanging on the retainer wall. Those are filled with White Pansies and the blooming Indian Hawthorn next to the wall is filling in with white blossoms as well.

The Indian Hawthorn to the left, we got as a gift from our German 'sons', in July of 1995.

Once a pot plant, it over the years has really grown up!

White Pansies in our Fiberglass Window Boxes alongside the driveway's retainer wall.

The blossoms of the Indian Hawthorn are an early spring pollen and nectar provider for the bees.

Photos are taken on April 10...
Do you have an Indian Hawthorn or White Pansies?
