Sunshine and a cloudless sky in the Southwest. Swirling white clouds of snow and ice in the Upper Midwest. Sigh. On the Monty Don program we watched last night, he was waxing eloquent about the contrast between the delicate pastels of early spring and the gaudy march of the tulips as the season nears its end---a prelude, as Monty sees it, to the bold colors of summer. Having given spring yellow its due a couple of days ago, I'm making it my challenge today to go for the softer colors of spring. From trillium to Dutchmen's Britiches, the possibilities are endless.
