I took this photo of one of my beautiful pink tulips last year. The flower was just about blown and the petals were almost spread out flat.
Usually by this time of year here in Toronto the snow’s melted and some of the first flowers of spring have started to make an appearance. That’s not the case this year though. We still have a fair amount of snow. Oh it’s melting, but it will take a while before our spring flowers begin to make an appearance.
Enough with snow and frigid weather already! Geesh!
Are you as tired of winter as I am? It’s -23 Celsius with the wind chill here in Toronto today. That’s -8 F if you don’t know the metric system. Cold huh?
It’s no wonder that I decided to post a photo of a lovely tulip that I grew in my garden last year.
I couldn’t help taking tons of photos of these tulips last year. The fiery orange just captured me and drew me in. Every time I visited my garden with camera in hand I was sure to photograph this tulip. Isn’t it lovely? Doesn’t it draw you in as well?
Our local ground hog didn’t see it’s shadow yesterday so that means Spring will soon be here. I’m so hoping that, that’s true!
Either way I’m eager for Spring to arrive and to show you just how eager I am I decided to post this lovely photo of Muscari which is also known as Grape Hyacinth. Certainly in this photo it’s easy to see why it’s been given the common name Grape Hyacinth as each tiny flower really does look a bit like a grape.
These are small spring Iris blooms.
I took this photo a couple of years ago and now these flowers no longer grow in my garden. They must have died out. I must replace them this spring or next fall as they are so very lovely.
I love spring flowers, especially the first few of the year as they are the promise of the season to come.
