The Pieris japonica blooms with cascading white flowers. But the new leaves then start as pink to scarlet red and really steal the show.

Even with a record warm and dry winter, it’s beginning to look a lot like Spring on this ‘north end’ farm.

Standoff
Cameron found this playmate at the veterinarian’s farm yesterday.
* update:
Thought I’d share this comment received via private email this morning, “Now you blew it! : > ) One day after Chinese New Years year of the sheep, you missed a great joke. And what’s with this dispute about whether its the year of the sheep or year of the goat? Both seem mentioned on wiki. Anyway for Salt Spring, either could not be more appropriate. Happy New Year John”
