SIGNS OF HOPE...SPRING IS IN THE AIR

Today is the FIRST day of SPRING!!!!
YAY!!!
I hope we are finished with the snow,
it was a rough winter
This sweet little crocus plant emerging from the snow is a sure sign
of hope that warm Spring days are upon us
Time to start planting your bulbs

Forsythia, one of the first Spring plants to paint the landscape...
YELLOW... just like the daffodils
Grape Hyacinthsclustered
in pretty containers
inside your home early in the season
and outside as soon as the first warms days come
Hyacinths with their soft and sweet fragrance
evoking the feeling of springtime and Easter
Delicate, tiny violets
carpeting the landscape
along with their larger counterpart... the Pansy
The delicate bell-like Lilly of Valley
with it's fresh, crisp, white color and clean aroma

Are you getting excited for those warm Spring days with
gentle breezes, sunshine and all of
those fragrant blossoms
waiting to emerge in the next days and weeks to come?
I'm off to grab my sunglasses now!
