More spring is sprung!

 Often first daffodils are cut back by a snow or severe frost.

Ours have been blooming consistently however. Maybe Mon. 3/18 will have a frost that night that may nip them down.

Wonderful bed of pale daffies in front of the Coach House this year.

An Asheville store had Amaryllis flowers in it's window, with a sign saying they were not for sale.



I think I would have liked to explore that store...but my friends wanted to go along. I'm with them.

Today's quote:

Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.

Where's the flower?

By this time last year, I was enjoying my Amaryllis.  This year, there's just lots of leaves showing.

Doesn't everyone plant critters around the base of their flowers?  Actually this keeps inquisitive paws out.

Perhaps I should show it a picture of last year's bounty.

My January 2013 blooms...not going to have any this year in Jan.
