more blooms in the sunshine

27 Feb 2015 - 4 comments | Translate title into English

After rain of biblical proportions over the last couple of days today we had sunshine,a very welcome sight. I went to feed the birds as normal and to my delight I noticed a few more blooms in the Crocus tub and that brightened the day even more.
While the show won't be anything like 4 years ago with the wildflower patch I may have at least some little blocks of colour in the tubs. It was such a simple thing seeing a few tiny blooms coming through but that's what makes all the work and disapointment worth it.

Oh yes! Between the grass, sunshine and flowers it makes spring so close you could feel it! Lucky, lucky you! And Jenny too with her beautiful flowers! We, on the other hand are only going to -1C today and about that thru the weekend. Snow likely Sunday again.. I still cannot even see my lawn as its covered with snow. Sigh...

Yes Mickey, nice as you say to see the colours of spring rising from your tubs.
I now have six croci, all yellow as they're always first here.

My neighbour looked very unhappy today as his lawn is looking more and more like the Shikotsu - Toya Volcano Park on Hokkaido with dozens of Mole hills sprouting during each night, in the past they remained in the field adjacent to our gardens.

Keep warm and safe.

I love the see-through tubs - makes the flowers so much brighter and these look great. Glad you had some sunshine today too.

A lovely show of colour already. I only have a solitary bloom in the front garden, and I didn't plant that one! We seem to be slower in my part of Wales.
