Mock orange (Philadelphus lewisii), one of my favorites, always herald the beginning of summer here.

The flowers of our thinleaf huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum) are hard to spot because they are translucent and disappear against their leaves. But the berries are dark blue, easy to find and delicious.

This one is growing in our garden, but isn't very happy. We end up cleaning out a lot of deadwood. I wouldn't recommend this as a garden plant, it really wants to be in the woods.

has made it to our yard, perhaps 
this will be the year 

that it makes it through the summer, 
unpinched, unbitten, thriving

Our fruit trees: second year plum trees blooming (fruit this year?) and my native crabapple is covered with flower buds! It may fruit, we've had it for almost 6 years

I was a little under the weather yesterday morning, and sat watching the dog play in our backyard. Noticed a couple of pretty things
