“First a howling blizzard woke us,
Then the rain came down to soak us,
And now before the eye can focus –
Crocus.”
- Lilja Rogers
Well although we have escaped the howling blizzard in this neck of the woods, my crocuses are now well and truly croaking. This is 'Firefly' growing in a pot.
I do like the poem - made me laugh! Your crocuses are lovely too.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem! Time does fly in the blink of an eye.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photo--I'm looking forward to seeing our crocuses bloom here.
Aw, they're so cute! I love crocuses.
ReplyDeleteHi Anna
ReplyDeleteI grow 'Purple Haze' Melianthus, a gorgeous plant that a friend introduced to the trade. ps...I'm noticing photos along with comments all of a sudden. This is cool. Did google just start doing this??? Alice
Thanks Easygardener. I am glad that the poem made you chuckle :) It always makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteMonica - they are hard not to love :)
Welcome Ariel-el and Alice - it's great to see you here and thanks for your comments.
Aerie-el, as you say time does fly - hard to believe that we are already in March. I hope that you do not have too long a wait before your crocuses start to croak.
Alice, I am not aware of that melianthus so will have to look it up. I wonder if it is available this side of the pond.
Do you mean the little photos with the captions at the bottom of each post ? If so it is not a Google feature. It is a widget that you can find out more about here : www.linkwithin.com/learn
