It's alive... it's ALIVE!!

I mean the garden of course!

The snowdrop was a snowdrop... although not quite like the ones I remember from the UK, it's still pretty!


I thought viola's were annuals that reseeded profusely...

not this time!


Wild/alpine strawberries made it through too:


As did some stuff I can't remember what it is! I planted hyssop, borage, beebalm & probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. Anyone recognize these?



I also have tulips & crocuses making an appearance:


Not super exciting photos but for a winter starved gardener, pretty exciting developments!

I love the first sprouts of spring. They make my heart happy. And I'm not even the gardener in our family.

I think violas have an incredibly strong will to live; I remember them reseeding but also coming back from the original plant. They look fragile but they're sneaky!

I had to purchase myself some tulips just to "spring" up the snow. Looks lovely to see signs of spring spouting from the earth.....thanks for sharing.

About a month ago I bought an indoor arrangement with daffs in because I couldn't wait for spring any longer! I'll save the bulbs & plant them outside for next spring :)
