Crocus

If the Crocus are up it must be spring.  March 21st is just after this weekend.  I have a lot of tulips and daffodils that are coming up out of the ground, but surely the first sign of spring is a crocus.  For some reason the yellow ones are always the first up, followed by white and then purple.  Maybe that only happens in my yard, but it's the way they've always arrived.  Bright and cheery, don't they look like little yellow buttercups?  I ask you,  how can't you smile when you see that?

  1. Hi Lori,
    Yes it is the same over on this side of the country in the other mountains. Every thing that came up or bloomed first was yellow. I wonder if that has to do with the light spectem
