Some March and April color from a West Coast EllGab Garden.

Not a plant, but a casual observer flying over the garden.

There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

Looks like it! Thank you

Yes, Dot is right.  Vincas.  I always call them Periwinkles.

I think they're in the same family but I always think of Vinca as groundcover. I'm not actually positive on that though. I'd have to look it up.

BTW @Rikki Gins - I love your tulip pictures. One of my early memories is sitting on the front steps of the house and watching the tulips at sunset. They start to slowly close as the sun wanes. I found it absolutely mesmerizing as a kid.

I'm glad you brought the tulips up, @PolkaDot.  Those tulips have come up every year for the past forty years.  There were more of them last year:  https://ellgab.com/index.php?topic=359.msg180475#msg180475  Normally kids pick the tulips on their way to school, but not this year, due to the virus.

I hope they gave them to their teachers!  :)

I enjoyed visiting your garden. You have inspired me to go out back and take a hard look at my urban garden. It has been somewhat cold here. With lows into the 30's during the night. I am growing somethings in doors until May 15th.

What a wonderful memory, Dot.  Thank you for sharing it with us.
