We are having a cool start to spring which is good. right now all I have are windflowers and crocus blooming.

This little patch of crocus is very special, right next to my back steps and they remind me each spring of a good friend who loved gardening. On our last 'girls day' when all her posse got together I passed a small bag of these to all the girls, I think seven of us. I made them promise to plant them somewhere at their home so that every spring when they bloom, we will remember our dear friend.
peace

Oh I love all the pictures and sure wish all my flowers were growing...but no...we are getting 3 to 6 inches more of SNOW... yup... SNOW...... so sick of winter..I want spring. We are even 15 to 20 degrees under our normal temps.. then we will have snow again in 5 days... ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww and grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I love Spring. Downunder we are heading into autumn (fall you refer to it as) which then means that winter is the next season - not my favourite but then again in Sydney we do not have winters anything as severe as some of you have.

Lovely photos.

All I see in my yard is snow.

So pretty, thanks everyone for sharing! My daffodil and forsythia are blooming, despite still having cold temps at night. Hang in there all of you who still have snow on the ground.

I am patiently waiting.

I have some blue bulbs I'd forgotten I'd planted (ixia maybe?). The tulips and daffodils are almost there, but the lilacs haven't even tried yet. Beautiful photo!

OMG we still have 6 feet of snow....i`m jealous.....lol

How beautiful!! I can just smell them!

Oh such a promise of warmer weather and renewal of the spirit. thanx for the post
