Spring Crocuses

Spring has finally arrived in southern Michigan, about a month late but it arrived. The temps finally hit the low 60's this week. The crocuses have popped, they are such beautiful little gems. I seems to have less of them this year, I think the winter heaved some of the bulbs up and were gobbled up by the squirrels and chipmunks. It just felt good to be outside working in the garden. 

In northern Michigan winter is still hanging on, the snow pack still measured 20 inches on April 1st.







Still waiting for green grass, oh how I miss that. The lawns are brown and still very ugly looking. Spring is slow to appear this year but so glad it has finally arrive. Now if only we can get rid of the snow up at the cottage in northern Michigan.

First Spring Flowers


We are having really warm weather here in Michigan this week, it has been in the 70's every day. This is about 30 degrees above normal for this time of year. So we have the early arrival, by almost a month, of our spring flowers. The lenten roses are the first to arrive, sometimes coming up while there is still snow on the ground.



And everyones favorite little bulbs, crocuses ….





What's blooming in your garden?


Hope you have a wonderful weekend and a great St. Patty's Day!!
