Happy Spring!

Spring is officially here on both the meteorological and astronomical calendars. Here's what it looks like in our yard this week.


Daffodils are blooming in two spots. 

These daffodils and the ones above came from a friend. 


Crocuses are popping up everywhere. Last fall, I replanted them around the yard without trying to remember where. Finding them here and there is like an Easter egg hunt.


Something has been snacking on them in a few places.


Last year, I planted a few bleeding hearts. I am happy that one of them is coming back up, and I still hope for the others.

Until next time...

    1. I love crocuses. Their bright colors are so welcome after a brown and gray winter.

  3. For me, spring has truly sprung when I see daffodils and forsythia. I'm sighing over your beautiful shades of yellow in your yard.

    1. You'll get there but the waiting can be hard. Not all the daffodils in our yard are blooming yet, but they are widespread over the area. I especially appreciate the full, yellow hillsides I see along a couple of roads we travel frequently.

  4. We are long past the daffodils and are now in the tree blooming phase. The redbuds are losing their petals but the dogwoods are blooming. My pear has a lot of blooms, but the apple trees are late bloomers

    1. Dogwoods are one of the last to bloom here, and we're a long way away from that. I like all of the spring blooms, but dogwoods are my favorite.
