Look! i have crocus in there. To tell ya the truth i didn't even know i had any planted in that particular bed. So was pleased to see them.

And look a but coming out, i think spring is coming around, almost 60 degrees yesterday and then snow last night and this morning. What's up with that?

  5. rinnert mich an das folgende Gedicht!!
    Schöner Frühling, komm doch wieder,
    Lieber Frühling, komm' doch bald,
    Bring' uns Blumen, Laub und Lieder
    Schmücke wieder Feld und Wald.
    Auf die Berge möcht' ich fliegen,
    Möchte seh'n ein grünes Tal,
    Möcht in Gras und Blumen liegen
    Und mich freu'n am Sonnenstrahl.

    Möchte hören die Schalmeien
    Und der Herden Glockenklang,
    Möchte freuen mich im Freien
    An der Vögel süßem Sang.
    *********
    Hoffmann von Fallersleben
    (1798-1874)

    (als Volkslied bekannt)

  10. Don't you just love surprises? I planted my raspberry plant last winter ago and nothing. The plant looked like died, but luckily, I decided to keep the bare branches and surprisingly, leaves are sprouting. I hope I'll get some berries this summer!

  18. It is Mother Nature's Christmas to us all and it comes in the name of Spring. I have always found it so enjoyable to stroll around the yard to see who has poked its head up next to provide us with colorful delights. BTW, it snowed on our butter cups but now it will be 73 today. Peace

  22. It looks like spring is on it's way! I think it's crocus stamens that are used for saffron. Maybe you can make some yellow rice and sprinkle purple petals over it! Hah! Wouldn't that be a sight.
