Wandering around my yard checking on plants coming up is always fun to me. I do this every spring, beginning in late February. By mid summer my yard is usually not so nice. I have clay soil with lots of rocks. So I have to enjoy it now while there is plenty of rain. Once it gets hot and stops raining very much everything drys up.
Anyway, I had fun taking these pictures:
Weeds.


Trilliums.


Violets.


Snowdrops.

Azaleas.


Forsythia.


Periwinkle.

Widowswort.

Irises.

And lastly more weeds.

But the final proof that makes spring official is this.

The pollen on my car!
Ohhhh....breathtaking....
ReplyDeleteThe photos are fantastic, but I think the snowdrops one w/the sunlight is the most amazing. How I love all those deep South springtime blooms.
Glad you had so much fun w/N!
SW, these are beautiful photographs! Certainly they should accompany a Wordsworth poem.
ReplyDeleteI am especially impressed by how wonderfully you captured the forsythia. I've had such difficulty capturing a decent shot of it this Spring.
And, as Beth noted, the snowdrops shot is breathtaking. Hmmmm, something else to put in your Etsy shop....
These are wonderful pictures. I am enjoying my yard as well.
ReplyDeletei am soooo envious that you have such beautiful flowers popping out everywhere. in vermont we are growing mud right now. however, i did see some little greens poking up through the snow today....
