Spring is coming and yesterday I had the sudden urge to make a trip to the garden center to look for inspiration, browse around and start some of my spring garden shopping. I came home with a few beauties that I just couldn't resist!
I love Ranunculus, especially this time of year. I only wish I could grow them in the garden. Bleeding hearts remind me of walking to the river with my Grandmother and I have some starts of hers here. They are not even poking their heads out of the dirt yet. Beautiful watercolors.
Why is everyone so excited about spring!?!? I haven't had enough winter yet! I've only got to see snow once! And its only rained for a total of about 6 days! Why did I get stuck somewhere sunny while all you people who want sunshine live where it rains!? It doesn't seem quite fair does it? I think I'll do a post tomorrow on how great winter is :)
Thanks for sharing! We still have piles of dirty unmelted snow. I can't wait until our garden centers open and I hang the fushias on the front porch, that's our Mother's Day tradition.
Hmmmm - these photos make me sign deeply. I am so anxious for Spring. We still have a ways to go. Yesterday I had a strawberry. It was hard and pretty flavorless - but it gave me hope!
I don't pop over from the reader often but thought I need to. To let you know how much I love your work and your blog. It's always fun to read your posts. Are those cabbage roses?
Gorgeous photos, and the watercolours are wonderful. Looks like a very productive trip out!
