I can’t wait until Spring arrives.
I was just saying on my gardening blog how protective all the snow we’ve gotten this year is for the garden, but still … enough is enough. I’m ready for nicer weather.
I miss seeing pretty flowers like these lovely Chionodoxa that bloom from mid spring to early summer.
I also miss delicate miniature irises such as the one that I’ve included to the right.
Do you have a favorite spring flower? Perhaps tulips? Crocus’, Hyacinths, Muscari, snow drops, daffodils, iris, helebores, bleeding hearts or one of the many other kinds of spring flowers?
Do one of these flowers get your heart racing in anticipation of spring and the good weather to come?

Yes, tulips! Ã have had a few posts already but they were taken few years back. I am waiting eagerly for them to spring up. I have never seen an iris in person yet.lol. But I love them in painting like Van Gogh’s. Wonderful shots, makes me want to go and buy some. =) good day!
I know what you mean by enough winter already. I’m waiting for some wild Marsh Marigolds to emerge so I can bring some home.
I saw your mottos
Mine is “OOPS”
We’re all anxious for spring! I can’t wait to see if my dutch iris and parrot tulips come back. I’m already checking daily, just in case, to see if I can spot a crocus ;~)
Those Chionodoxa are very pretty!
I’d taken a winter break from GTS, Trish. I’ve posted today but posting may still be sporatic until things start to bloom again. I’ve missed you guys, though. It’s hard to find time to visit everyone!
Can’t wait for spring either!
Spring must be on it’s way with colours like those.
The Chionodoxa is such a pretty flower. I love the color. Spring is here for Arizonans. Wildflowers are blooming, some cacti have bloomed and the Aloes all have flowers opening. Lucky me–at least for now. Then—summer comes! Drat.
Happy GTS,

Gorgeous, it looks very sunny where you are. My heart feels the excitement of spring when I spot the first snowdrops!
Happy GTS!
Gizelle Iris’s are beautiful. I love the small and dwarf varieties best as opposed to the large German Iris’. I’m hoping that once this snow melts away in a week or two that I might start to see some signs of spring … If that happens I’ll of course be hoping that we don’t have a really cold snap after the snows all gone!
Wiseacre I visited your site and saw your lovely flowers. I hope you’re able to transplant the Marsh Marigolds easily enough.
KML thanks for visiting! I’ll join you in wishing for spring!
Jean-Luc those are photos from last year or the year before … I’m just showing everyone what lovelies I’m looking forward to seeing soon! 😉
Such beautiful flowers! I really miss Spring! We are in Summer all the time! Thanks for sharing.
