Gifts from the Squirrel

Mr. Squirrel has bestowed upon me four beautiful red tulips and an allium.  They're such a surprise come spring.  I particularly am enjoying the allium because I've always wanted one but was too cheap to spend the money for one single flower.

Isn't this beautiful?


 

 
I do take umbrage, however, with his garden planning.  When I planted Dutch iris in the front bed one particularly warm winter, he dug them up and put them in the back yard under the Japanese maple.  I transplanted them all but he managed to take some and spread them throughout the neighborhood.

I wonder who ended up with my 497 crocus? I have three left.

Well, they do naturalize, but I'm not sure that would make up for it!
