It has been a remarkably cold and dreary winter. On days like today, I need to be reminded we will soon have our beautiful weather back. Please indulge me while I show you a few photos to lift my mood.The first thing that blooms at my house is the saucer magnolia. It doesn't bloom for very long so I have to make sure I don't miss it. When the buds are closed, they are a pretty pink but when they open, they become pink with white edges. I've had people stop and ask me just what they are. I really love them when they are in perfect bloom, like in the photo above.
I also really love dogwoods -- they're like white frosting sprinkled throughout the woods.
I also love calla lilies. I know this is not quite the same. Tulips or daffodils would have been a more fitting photo. But I just love them.

Beautiful photos! I am soooo ready for spring!

ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos! Just what I needed to see today. Our Bradford Pear trees are attempting to 'bud.' Hopefully, spring will come soon. Until then, your photos are much appreciated.
Thank you and have a great weekend,
