Spring, it comes right early By Sharon Brown on March 18, 2012 It was the crack of dawn and I was hardly awake. She leaned down and whispered, "Wake up! Spring, it comes right early this year." » Read the article

The daffodils are finished. The forsythias are ablaze with golden glory. People's yards are covered with blankets of shedding tulip tree blooms and the redbuds are quickly filling out. Plum trees are covered with beautiful, delicate pink blooms and we are praying we don't get a late killin' frost. It will soon be time to hit the hills looking for morels. I sure hope my "molly mooching" is more successful this season. Please join me at my Websites: At Home Away from Home ~ Cajun's Corner Quote | Post #844481 (1)

Nice to hear that, Cajun. Just got the same report from my brother this morning. Makes me a little homesick for my mountains. I've been working in the yard all day, feels good! http://allthingsplants.com/ Art And Artists * Blue Gardens * Writers and Words Quote | Post #844548 (2)

A beautiful story Sharon! The pictures were wonderful too! We are starting with forsythia and daffodils. The crocus is done already. We had no snow to speak of all winter either, and we're the Midwest! I've never seen it happen before. I think there were plenty of weather stories all around the world. I was watching the geese coming in in droves earlier this spring and I thought about them as if I were a ''cave-man'' or Indian, and I felt the swell in my heart as I thought they did. Spring. Could anything be more perfect? A small town has no secrets except itself Quote | Post #844758 (3)

Spring does that, makes our hearts swell, I think. Good to see you, BP, Happy Spring! http://allthingsplants.com/ Art And Artists * Blue Gardens * Writers and Words Quote | Post #844822 (4)

Thanks :o) I've been so busy lately that I haven't been on the computer much. A small town has no secrets except itself Quote | Post #845141 (5)

No early Spring here, Shar. Love your Wisteria. This is as close as we can come to a colorful tree here in Alaska. Hmmm....What shall we call this one? A WISHteria maybe?... "Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature." Gerard De Nerval Quote | Post #845819 (6)

Oh I remember that tree!! How fun. The picture I have was made in June though, so not nearly as 'wishful' as in the snow. Thanks Ava! http://allthingsplants.com/ Art And Artists * Blue Gardens * Writers and Words Quote | Post #845886 (7)
