First flowers, i.e., crocuses, of 2023, in our yard, from 4-days ago.
This crocus bed is usually the FIRST to bloom each year — bar this (i.e., 2023). Because it is close to the top of the driveway a LOT of snow gets shoveled onto it — & this year we had more snow than most. This bed had a snow covering till late yesterday. So, today really was its first totally snow free day & the flowers, like magic, bloomed. Amazing.
Moreover, they were so anxious to see the light (i.e., the Sun) they punches through obstacles in their way. Amazing. WOW. See this post — also from today.
New flowers were blooming even as I watched. Well, not exactly. But, there were 3 new flowers 2 hours after I had first visited. They sure are in a hurry. Do NOT worry, I will keep you posted. Enjoy. There will be no shortage of posts featuring flowers. SMILE.
