Cheerful Signs of Spring, 2020

[Daisy]

Nanto - your snowdrops must like where you've planted them.

Jasmine in my daughters front garden, snowdrops everywhere. Lots of lovely daffodils in my front garden.

Our neighbour across the road is a very hard working and proud gardener. He has hundreds of daffodils in his front garden. They come out later than ours, which is lovely as it extends our daffodil time

I have been to Delft on the bike and saw lots of snowdrops, crocus and daffs. As we come into the village the road is lined with daffodils, they aren't out yet. When they come out we know that spring is well on its way!

Must be a beautiful sight Lizzie.

Lizzie - how lovely - not long now till those daff sstrut their stuff. Aren't they a wonderful sight.

I always feel more cheerful, hopeful and happy when there are definite signs of spring.

Daffs along the roads are out!

I only grow the short daffs. and they are in full flower with some snowdrops and primulas in a sheltered bed.

It's lovely in my front garden

Pink blossom on our tree, white blossom starting on the bush (don't know that is) and daffodils in bloom.

Gem - I had a lovely moment with GD2 on Monday. I was fastening her into her car seat and looking over my shoulder she could see flowers. she was really excited about a tree with pretty pink flowers on. When I looked I saw it was (I think) a flowering cherry, and she was fascinated by it. So we had a lovely chat about ornamental cherries and cherries for eating, which lead on to apple blossom as well.

I was so pleased she appreciated the wonder of these delicate little flowers growing on bare trees in the depths of winter.

How lovely Daisy those are the moments we treasure.
