We can see little bits of yellow! I had to trim the tree over the volunteer, and I think that's gonna get taller yet.
The wildflowers are blooming, but it's weird. I mixed all the mixes together, and somehow all the cosmos ended up over there and all the bachelor's buttons ended up over here. I don't know how that happened.
I'm still planting new patches of wildflowers, and also replanting so many freaking daffodil bulbs. I got a few enormous patches up. It'll be a while before they become huge masses again. It's almost a pity, they're very pretty in the spring, but no. There has got to be some balance.
Sebastian actually approached me to get out of the house through the back door today rather than turning around and going the other way. He didn't look too excited about it, but he didn't dash by while hissing either, so that's progress.
