    Spring is on its way! I don't have much that's blooming or really even coming out of the ground yet, but I do have some Crocus starting to bloom and a couple small wild plants blooming also.

    What a good picture. Our crocuses in the medians are up as well. One can't view them well, but yours----ah, it's a good thing to see.

    Thanks everyone! I was so excited to see the Crocus this morning. It was like my plants were wishing me a Happy Valentine's Day. :p

    It was so kind of your flowers to bloom for you on a V-Day!
    That Crocus is gorgeous.
