Spring has finally sprung! I’m like an excited kid on Christmas morning each day that a different bloom begins to open! These purple crocuses were at their prime about three weeks ago in our front garden beds. This particular patch popped up next to our Mugo Pine shrub.
These Narcissus are in our backyard patio bed . . .
We adore this Star Magnolia Tree near our front entrance . . .
We wish this tree’s full bloom time was longer, as it only lasts about two weeks.
You can see some of the catkins – resembling pussy willows – that haven’t yet opened up. Each catkin contains a beautiful flower!
I hope you enjoyed this mini-dose of Spring!
Have any of your favorite flowers shown up yet?

Gorgeous flowers! It was so nice meeting you at SNAP!!!
Thanks Katie! It was so awesome to meet you too! I feel like I met a friend I already knew!! 🙂
Hi Laura – your star magnolia is gorgeous. Mine is just starting to open – it’s one of my favourites. But like you, I wish the blooms lasted longer.
I see yours (on your blog) hasn’t opened yet, so I’ll watch for upcoming pictures and enjoy the star magnolia all over again! 🙂
AHHHH…Spring blooms are so refreshing…but YES…they don’t last nearly long enough! These are just stunning! Thanks so much for sharing! ~Tammy
You’re very welcome, Tammy! And I agree about how fleeting the Spring blooms are. I think it’s nature’s way of telling us to truly enjoy each moment while it lasts. 🙂
