Spring flowers...

Well,  Spring is finally here.  
But, it has been on the chilly side.
Today is 50 degrees and rainy,  
making it feel very cold and damp.

I do have some flowers blooming though.  
They are a welcome sight, 
after a long and dreary winter.

Here are a few...


My pond filter liner sprung a leak,
so now it is a planter.
I didn't want to let it go to the recycle bin.
I planted daffodils, pansies, parsley,
cilantro and dill in it.


Hyacinths that have reseeded...

Hellebores,  also known as Lenten Rose...

A Pink Hellebore...
I love the upright flowers on this one...

 More Hyacinths...


These are Grape Hyacinths...I love these.  They make beautiful mounds of purple,
and they multiply quickly.

So, I have a wonderful week ahead of me, as I travel to Disney World.  I understand that it is very hot there,  like 95 degrees yesterday.  I hope it's not too much of a shock on this old body of mine!  But to me, I think it'll feel pretty good!
I hope so.

  'Til next time,  Love ya,  Jean
