Some spring blooms from the nursery. I love it when the forced bulbs bloom early,giving you a little added incentive to make it through the rest of the crummy weather.
Ok, you've convinced me. I'm going to make time to head up to Molbaks next week, especially since the weather is forecast to be crummy here. Love the blue background against the daffodil, perfect!
It's so hard for me to imagine flowers actually blooming already! We're in "flood season", watching the melting snow and checking river levels. It's still going to be awhile before we actually see the ground! But I love seeing these "previous" and the lighting, and transparency of the blossom in the first is delicious!

Oh good grief, I need to find a nice nursery. I just don't see anything like this at Home Depot. ;)
ReplyDeletePat--that first one is divine! The lighting and the way it hits the inside of the bloom is fabulous...

ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely! I can't wait for spring!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely! I am so glad that spring is peeking for you!
ReplyDeleteThose are lovely! I didn't plant any bulbs last year and now I am really regretting it.
