Sometime after the first of this year I started periodically walking a few blocks to the OSU experimental garden. It’s small, but has a wonderful variety of plants and flowers. In the late winter or early spring, most things were still dormant, although there were the lovely winter pansies. Then, as spring arrived, it started to be more colorful with the different shades of green and more flowers, but the fountains were not flowing due to the possibility of cold nights. Now, it is alive with numerous flowers, some common and some more exotic and the colors are beautiful. There are several bubbling fountains and a koi pond with water lilies and a small arched bridge. It’s been exciting seeing it transform and continues to be one of the highlights when I walk in my neighborhood. Today was unusual because I saw a hummingbird and bumblebee having their morning nectar. I’ll forgo the urge to become too philosophical about how the changes coincide with human life, but my visits do give me hope that some time in the future life will not be so bleak and will bloom again. --Jeanette
