My first tulip of the year has bloomed. It is my favorite of all my garden flowers. The other tulips are pretty and the daffodils bring a smile to my face, but this salmon colored tulip is the best! Each year I fear that it will not return as it grows in a rather vulnerable garden spot. Maybe this year I will finally dig it up and move it to a safer location.
My little grape hyacinths are showing now too, along with some dog-tooth violets that I'm not sure I ever noticed before. The garden under my kitchen window will soon be full of columbines and lilies of the valley. Spring is so much fun!
Slow down and enjoy your surroundings.

ReplyDeleteTulips? Oh man! It is still crappy here and they are predicting snow on Saturday. I hope they are wrong.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope they're wrong too.
ReplyDeleteOh, Kristina... I feel for you!! It's time for winter to be OVER!!!!! I'm soooo thankful for the nice weather we've been enjoying. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! We only have the daffodils blooming at this point (and a few trees). Tulips are getting eaten by the deer....they don't like daffodils.
ReplyDeleteYour banner of them looks beautiful!
So pretty and springish!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever seen the salmon color. I can smell that hyacinth!
