Spring, is it here?

 This wasn't my planned post for today, but our crocus in our front little lawn were so beautiful, Dh had to take photographs.


All planted 3 years ago and they seem to have multiplied.


Very pretty and the view from our kitchen window. 
A joy to see and yesterday was a lovely sunshiny day.
A real spring day.
I had a good walk round the back garden, peering at the new green growth, just checking if plants have survived the winter. 
My Sea Holly is not looking good, but I hopeful it will pick up and there's going to be a fantastic show of Aquilegia, which have self seeded all over the garden. I'm hoping for more warm days, it was 12°C, warm enough to sit outside in the sun for a cup of tea in just a cardigan.

  1. What a beautiful picture. I'm so glad you have no snow on the ground and your flowers are growing and blooming. We're having our February fall this week, so the snow should melt. Then it'll be a long time before I see any flowers.

  3. What a wonderful sight! I may be just a bit jealous - we are still covered in snow.

  4. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! In my part of Canada,, we're having a brutal winter, the likes of which we haven't had in at least a few years. But it's not minus 20-something today, so that's a bonus. Two or more months for crocuses here, I expect, though we've had them in early March before. Sigh.

    However you found my Musings blog, thanks for the comment!

  7. Ah, those are beautiful! I saw some lovely ones in Hexham yesterday! I am so sad that our Aquilegia haven't grown back!
