Chardonnay Pearls
May 28, 2016 (149/366) "Life is full of surprises." - John Major
We love our new home, but were disappointed with the landscaping (or lack of it). On the bright side, it was a clean slate for us to do what we want, but that's a work in progress. However, there were a few nice surprises, like this Deutzia gracilis 'Nikko' aka Chardonnay Pearls (who knew) in front of the garage. I love them!
