Lovely to see your spring colours. I have the same ones showing here. There's always something encouraging about seeing the first bloomers. They make bees happy too. That first dose of pollen is so necessary.
Karin, You have such a keen eye. Your pictures are fabulous..as always. Thanks for sharing such lovely little gems with us.
Thank you Sjoerd.I agree and they really cheer up the dismal weather. I haven't seen much bee activity recently as we haven't had more than one day without rain again... Thank you Carolyn. Thank you Netty. I hope your spring arrives soon. Frank, I think you're right-it has been so miserable any colour has to be a good thing. Thank you Cheryl.
Hi Karin-- Lovely photos~ Made me want to run outside & look for our snowdrops & croscuses! Of course the 2' of snow out there is a little daunting....I think I shall just enjoy yours.
I got a new crocus type from a neighbour gardener. Crocus tricolor. That ought to add some colour next year. Please poist more pics when you have more bloomers. Oké?
Hi Karin,..lovely pictures,..that blue Crocus is stunning as are the Orchids,..your other Crocus will be blooming in no time,..looking forward to seeing it in bloom,..Crocus colours are beautiful and with such vivid colours.
