What’s blooming in your garden?

Pink Tulip

So far we don’t have any spring flowers blooming in our garden. In fact most of our yard and garden beds are still covered in snow. However, I’m sure that’s not the case for everyone! Surely some of you are starting to see spring flowers?

I’m getting antsy to see our plants start to sprout from the ground. It’s warming up and the snows melting so I know I won’t have to wait much longer.

The flower that I’ve posted today is one of my Angelique tulips. This is a double flowering tulip. When it blooms it has an abundance of petals and almost looks like a rose. It’s lovely and it has a nice light scent as well.

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information. GTS participants remember to check in at As the Garden Grows each week so that we’ll know you made a new post!

    I usually grow my plants from seed and I am still waiting for them to germinate. in the meantime I will be getting some flowering plants from the shop tomorrow so that I can have an instant colourful garden. 😉

    Gorgeous picture! I’m staring at a dull yard – half snow, half dirt piles my boys have constructed. Quite a sight for sore eyes! I can’t wait to see some green!

    Nope, still snowing here in Toronto and I can’t wait to see the flowers and leaves and the scent of spring when I go out in the morning.
    Hi just thought of dropping some lines from Bumpzee… Nice blog
