Delicate "Weeds"
 
 

There are a lot of clover in the front yard. It is growing in large round clumps scattered over the grass next to the flower beds. I like the clover even though some people think of it as a lawn weed.

The little pink flowers bloom through all of the spring and most of the summer if you don't mow them down.  It would be nice to transplant them into one space. I'm just not sure where that "space" would be right now or how to move them, so I guess they will stay in the lawn for a while longer.
