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.
In early January we had a big snow storm and this is what my Toronto neighborhood looked like for a while! Everything was dusted with snow.
The snow didn’t last long though. The weather warmed up and everything melted. It was darn right spring like in the middle of January … until last week when we were plunged into a deep freeze again. A deep freeze without any snow at all.
It’s been snowing again today so perhaps we’ll have a little snow cover for a few days until it melts away again.
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.
Snap Dragon that is …
This is a pretty little annual flower that I don’t even have to plant anymore. It reseeds itself very well in my garden and each spring and early summer many little seedlings come up in areas that they’d been growing the year before.
Snap! It’s that easy!
