It feels good to finally see some color back in my front yard again.  This Week Was The First Sight Of 2016 Spring Flowers in my front yard here in Middletown, CT.  I stepped out the door on Wednesday morning and the first thing I saw was the sight in the picture above.  Because of all the early warm weather we have been having these crocuses are blooming about 3 weeks ahead of last year.

Now that the crocuses have budded, the Daffodils will not be far behind.  Even the bees are happy to see the return of Spring Flowers and are wasting no time in starting to collect pollen for their hives.

 

 

This Weekend Was The First Sight Of 2016 Spring Flowers in Middletown, CT., and it could not have come to soon for me.  Next the grass will begin to grow again, and it will be time to take out the lawnmower.  I do not like cutting grass, but the first time I cut grass for the year is the true sign Spring has arrived for me!!!

Hi George Souto ,  After the Nast Winter you had in the east, that is a welcome sight.

Hi George - I just noticed yesterday that there were green shoots poking up in our gardens - I kinda hope they're weeds, because they're being a bit optimistic regarding early spring in Colorado - we have a way to go yet.

Oh George Souto I'm so happy you are seeing first hand that Spring is really on the way to your part of the world! Those purple shoots look so strong and determined to make their way into this world in 2016! 

May all the spring flowers give you as much joy tomorrow as they do today!

This weekend should make a big change in turning the winter look into spring. The trees are tinging red and green in my area.

There is nothing quite like the emergence of Crocus each spring to herald in the season.

Good morning George. These plants are definitely getting an early start, hope they aren't damaged badly by some colder weather in the next couple of weeks. They look wonderful!

Hi George:

You are a very sensitive man. I agree with Kathleen Daniels . The flowers are pretty and you did capture its beauty.

What pretty flowers and colors, George. I love spring. It's my favorite season (maybe because I was born on the first full day of spring). Charlotte started really popping with color in the past week, as well.

George Souto Your flowers are lovely.  Spring is new beginnings.  In south Florida, it works in reverse.  Many of our flowers are planted in winter, although I did see some beautiful pink hibiscus yesterday.

Crocuses are the early birds of the flower world and when they start coming out and blooming this pretty, spring can only be right around the corner George Souto.   Maybe Punxsawtawney Phil  was right for a change !
