Spring Eternal
Flowers have returned. In January when our bodies are convinced winter will last forever, we wrap ourselves in blankets and pour over seed catalogs, watch garden TV, and suspect spring will never arrive.
Singing the Blues
They're called minor bulbs, the tiny flowers we scatter about in an effort to save our sanity after a long winter.
Mmmmmmmm….Magnolias!
This had been an outstanding year for magnolias. We have managed to elude a late frost so the star magnolias (Magnolia stellata) have held much longer than normal.
Crocus: Pearls of Spring
Each day I walk the property, carefully noting signs of spring. Sometimes the changes are tiny and sometimes flowers appear out of nowhere.
