It’s hard to believe that these tiny little spurts of growth will lead to beautiful, lush plants that will showcase amazing blooms. But that’s what will happen.
Clematis ‘Niobe’ has been gracing my garden since 2010, and is one of my favourite garden plants. There are oodles of flower buds preparing to open.
Hyacinth Jacinthe is slowly emerging. I can’t wait to get a whiff of that rich, spicy scent that the flowers exude.
Crocus Jeanne D'arc is supposed to be an early bloomer, but it took its time getting started. It’s been difficult getting photos of the blooms because they close when the elements are not to their liking.
The stars of the show up until now have been the daffodils. No matter the weather, they never disappoint. They are one of the most beautiful signs of spring.
Many of the other plants are showing signs of life, and it’s only a matter of time before the garden is overflowing with lovely flowers. Can’t wait!
What’s growing on in your part of the world?
We have just a few daffs open -- still waiting for the tulips. Hopefully, they'll bloom before May arrives? :)
ReplyDeleteLet's hope so! It's about time...
DeleteThis has been the longest winter! Your photos are gorgeous.I'm starting to see signs of life in my own garden - but I better keep my killer paws off it to give it a chance!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly has been the longest winter, and I think we're all sick of it! I am SO ready for some warm weather and some greenery.
DeleteOur tulips are starting to push up above the earth -- maybe an inch or two now. That's it.
ReplyDeleteLovely tulips! That's one of the most beautiful signs of spring.
Deletegreat flowers
ReplyDeleteThank you, Adam!
DeleteIt IS an exciting time of year for sure, Martha!!
ReplyDeleteLet me see....we have snowdrops, crocii, bloodroot. and helibore. Lots on the way too but we aren't as far south as you. Have fun in the garden.
Yes, lots of wonderful things on the way! I hope we have a nice season coming up, so we can't get out there and enjoy it.
DeleteYour photos and signs of Spring cheer me up. We are still not there yet and I"m struggling, so thank you!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy you get to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Well, it's certainly been one heck of a long tunnel...LOL...
DeleteI need to see flowers! Thank you so much, Martha!
ReplyDeleteWe all do. Winter stuck around longer than we'd like it to!
DeleteYour emerging flowers are looking wonderful! We still have lots of some snow. I did see a few scillia starting to push up through the ground though.
ReplyDeleteSpring has taken a long time this year to come around. I'm sure your snow won't last much longer, and the flowers will begin to rise.
DeleteBeautiful! Hurray for spring!!
ReplyDeleteIt may finally be here! There is hope!
DeleteSo so pretty! The daffodils look especially happy :)
ReplyDeleteI always think of these flowers are happy faces. They look like they're smiling.
