Waiting for Spring
With the taste of Spring like weather we’ve been having lately – especially this past Friday! – I can barely wait until the first spring flowers in my garden start to appear!
One of the first flowers to show up is always the Crocus’.
I planted yellow and purple ones in the lawn and just at the edges of my garden beds (lawn edges). So come the end of March I should have some of these lovelies baring their lovely blooms.
One of the next flowers to appear each Spring is my Hellebore. I love this flower. They’re so pretty. I just wish they’d lift their flower heads more so that we could enjoy their blooms better. The flowers are always dropping and hiding behind the plants leaves.
If you have a garden or have planted some flowers in your yard which ones are you most looking forward to seeing come Spring?
Green Thumb members – Are you guys still posting most Sundays?
Only a few of you check in regularly. Shady Gardener being the most frequent. I thought that most members had agreed to come and check in on my Green Thumb Post so that all of our members would know who made a new post?
From my end it feels like very few people are participating. I’m getting lonely! If that’s not the case, please do check in on each new Green Thumb Post that I make so that I and all the rest of the members who are participating that week will know you have made a new GTS post that week.

Wow! I’m surprised I check in the most frequently, as I really do see the posts “out there!” (Can you believe that you’ve given me credit and I Didn’t post this past Sunday??) Sorry! Hopefully people respond to the request to leave a note here!! I love the above photos!!

I didn’t participate much in Green Thumb Sunday over the winter months but I started again. The garden is just starting to come back to life again.

i looking forwards to anything but daffodils. they seem to make any garden look cheap. when i lived in new zealand i bought 200 bulbs on ebay, and after a few years i realised every other cheapskate in my area had done the same. from then on i went right over the top of them with a lwan mower
