First Springtime Flower |
It is a small Tête-à-Tête Daffodil which was growing in front of a door in a small garden.
Already blooming to celebrate the rebirth of life as the daylight lengthens and the temperatures moderate.
Given the time I spend outside yesterday, it was nice to see the small flower. My own gardens are not far behind, with lots of buds on the daffodils. I noted that the squirrels have decimated all of my tulips--there are none left to enjoy this year. But the patched of daffodils and crocus should be beautiful when they bloom in a few short days.
I also found buds on the plum trees--they are the first bloomers of springtime and I always enjoy their while, lightly fragrant flowers.
Springtime is here! Bring it on.
