Putting my son on the bus every morning gives me the opportunity to walk past my flowerbeds daily (instead of just driving past them as I come up the driveway in the evening) and keep closer tabs on what starts blooming when.
The candytuft also started blooming this morning, but this Camassia won the photogenic award for today.
I saw these purple blooms from a distance while getting my son on the bus this morning, and had to take a minute to figure out what was growing here that I hadn’t planted.

Spent the morning gardening. Had lunch at home with the hubby. Salon appointment in half an hour. Couldn’t be happier in this moment.
