Not Forced, But Encouraged...

A few branches of forced forsythia pruned from the garden last week. It's only days ahead of the outdoor bloom, which will no doubt come on with this week's rains. Other bushes in the area (in sunnier locations than ours) have already begun brightening the landscape with their yellows...as always, in seeming perfect coordination with the first brilliant yellow daffodils...now THAT's what I call intelligent design.
