Chionodoxa
Last Saturday, when I surveyed my garden, only a few flowers were blooming. The crocus were still blooming, but they’ve since stopped, and the lovely blue iris, and the hellebore that I showed you earlier this week was blooming as well. The only other flower that had made an arrival was the Chionodoxa.
Chionodoxa are delicate spring flowers. I have bluish purple ones as shown above, white ones and pink ones. Of course the only once that had made an appearance were the purple ones. Most were not yet open.
Now, one week later, the garden is alive with green leaves and flower buds. I think all of the Chionodoxa are blooming, and so are some of the hyacinths and daffodils. I must admit that I haven’t gone out to take a close look so there could be a few other nice surprises.
I did have one tulip blooming in my front boulevard garden bed, but it met an untimely end. I’m telling that story over at Tricia’s Musings.

They are so beautiful. Thanks for visiting.
I actaully have some daffoldils and anemones blooming this week. Yipee!
I love spring flowers of all kind
My GTS post today isn’t really something I’d have wanted in my garden….
Those are cute little flowers. (If you can use the word cute to describe flowers)
I don’t have a lot blooming in the garden right now. I am already longing for the vegetable harvest though.
Happy GTS!
I *love* the delicate color of these! Very nice!
These definitely are quite cute — very delicate and springy. I’ve got tiny blue flowers on my GTS post this week, too — we must have both gotten the memo that this was the week for them. Thanks for introducing me to a new kind of blossom!
They look so happy peaking out of the ground.
All of my bulbs are gone. The temps been in the 90’s for the past 3 days and the blooms are fading fast.
Isn’t it soo gareat when the garden suddeny takes off.
Cute is a good word. Definitely cute! Nothing new blooming in my garden this week, but I’ve shared some more tropical treats for the table!
We’ve got tulips, daffodils and forsythia and that is quite early for the season. Spring is great and promising i think:-)
Those flowers look pretty good. The colors are definitely vibrant. They would look great in my garden also. Although I still prefer white roses over anything else.
