The First Flowers of Spring

I know it technically isn’t spring yet, but it sure feels like it! All of the snow has finally melted, the weather is much warmer, and the birds are singing. But best of all, the first flowers are up! I decided to take a few pictures of both those that have bloomed and those that are just starting to push their way up…

The snowdrop is usually the first flower to bloom around here. We have a small patch under a tree in the front yard. I was so excited to see this one!

Pushing up from the ruins Old Man Winter has made of our front flower garden, these jaunty daffodil sprouts are soon to sport those beautiful blossoms.

And finally, some crocus sprouts pushing up under the hedge. Every year, I watch this spot for these spring classics. We have them in various locations around the yard, in purple, white, and yellow.

That’s all for now, but stay tuned for more spring flower updates!
