    We had a spectacularly gorgeous day in West Texas! Warm & sunny with minimal wind. I took pictures of these to brighten y'alls' day:

    Mmm, I can almost smell those daffodils. :) Your almond looks good, and so do your vinca's. Actually, everything looks good to me today.

    I'm shivering here in temperatures of just 3 degrees C so seeing all your lovely photographs has rerally cheered me up.

    Beautiful blooms WTxDaddy. What is that in the 4th photo? It's very pretty.
    I'm glad someone is enjoying spring blooms..it is still snowy here.

    It's snowing here at the moment so these splashes of colour are very welcome indeed.

    4th photo

    Netty,

    The fourth photo is flowering almond. My wife's grandmother planted these at our old house & they bloomed like this each Spring. When we moved into this house, I put two flowering almonds in by our dog enclosure.
