Spring amazes me. It always comes-- whether winter was warm or cold, wet or dry, seemingly endless... Spring comes.
The first bloomers in my yard are the crocus. Hello flower.
My purple hyacinth are next. They smell like heaven.
I try to teach my kids, boys and girls alike, to stop and smell the flowers.
I took a start of forget-me-nots from my mom's house, and they are blooming this year!
The vincas are greening up and blossoming. These are still messy to clean up every year, but hopefully they spread more and I won't have to worry about cutting them back every year.
I have quite a few varieties of fdaffodils, and more blooming this year than ever before. I think they're finally comfortable enough to show their colors.
The crabapple trees were in all their glory for Easter. These are also very fragrant--I love to stick my nose in alongside the bees and take a deep breath.
Thankfully the crabapples weren't bothered by the frost we had a week or so ago! My redbud tree wasn't so happy... half of it's flowers froze in the bud, poor thing.
