Renewal Everywhere

Spring growth adorns this non-native evergreen that I planted years ago

 The Rhododendron (from Ancient Greek ῥόδον rhódon "rose" and δένδρον déndron "tree") suffered from winter damage as well as the usual insect battles but a few flowers survived to spring forth this year

A native Holly that I transplanted years ago from in the wood to along the old brick walk (faintly visible in lower background) is sending forth flower buds and also losing last years leaves in great abundance.
