Just look around and see all the beauty that surrounds us. Clematis vines are flowering with their beautiful colors.
Peonies are in bloom, as are irises.
Add to that many of the annual flowers that we've all set out to add color. Color is all around us. But with the good also come a few things we could do without. My snowball bush is flowering and dropping petals all over the deck. They are mixed in with all the flying maple seeds, elm seeds and all the other seeds that are blowing in the wind.
