Okay. I've only sat down to do a post about spring at least 5x, but have never finished it. So now I'm going to publish it as is. I had more plans, but at the very least, there are some pictures of pretty flowers. Here it is.
Spring is here! It has been slowly revealing itself, but lately, it has been in a hurry to show its colors. An exciting time to be sure.
 |
| One day I found the first daffodil beginning to bloom. I planted daffodils in various places in the yard a couple of years ago, and they're starting to flower. Yay! |
 |
| The next day it looked like this after four inches of snow and frigid temperatures. |
 |
| Another day, I found our first set of crocus blooming. |
 |
| The next day, they looked like this after one of God's furry creatures had a midnight snack. |
 |
| One day our trees looked like this, |
 |
| And the next day, they looked like this plum tree. |
 |
| Snowdrops. The earliest flowers to bloom in spring, and they are already gone. |
 |
| The second wave of crocus. |
 |
| The third wave of crocus. Depending on the location, they bloom at different times. |
 |
The same goes for the daffodils. These were the first to bloom.
They are the same ones as in the first picture. |
 |
| These were the next to bloom. Some of the daffodils are still only leaves that are half up. |
 |
| Hellebore |
 |
| Forsythia |
So there you have it - for better or for worse. Now I'm out to get beds ready for some cruciferous vegetables. Until next time...
