Delicate but still quite strong, the allium bloom for a while with their beautiful colour and shape.

These blooms come up every year in my garden and I’m not quite sure what they are – but have now been told they are invasive. Too bad.

It’s been a good spring for the daffodils although they’re not keen on the heat we’ve had. I certainly am.

I just love the way daffodils have that matte texture and mass to their leaves.

The garden has come to life! Wishing everyone a wonderful Good Friday. We’re going back into lockdown here so it’s nice to have a day off work despite everything.. 🙂 Hope you are all well!

Daffodils on the Rise

I took this a week and a half ago and these Daffodils have grown at least triple this now. Today’s forecast is for sun and cloud and 18 degrees C (64 F)… finally.

Five Tulips

Some colourful spring flowers – from the store- shot against the snow of last Friday. I left the little greyish area on the lower right because otherwise it would look like a white seamless and not the snow-covered front porch! We have been given a forecast, by Wiarton Willie (a groundhog – no kidding), of an early spring, so I’m hoping for some outdoor bulbs in the not too distant future.
