Snow in the Nippon Kan garden in Denver this spring. Late snow this year caused damage to the garden however the damage brought even more new buds. We can learn a lot about life from the garden.

Just as the buds on the trees were beginning to open and the flowers were beginning to bloom, Denver was hit with a pair of back to back spring snowstorms. The storms were beautiful, but they caused a lot of damage, ultimately making spring come very late this year. This photo was taken in the middle of April in the Nippon Kan gardens. It is a beautiful scene, but can you believe its April!
That’s springtime in the Rockies for you!
