Spring to Look Forward To - Photo Essay

Rate: 8 Flag

Because it is dreary February, just about everything in the garden is dormant or dead - and because I am waiting for spring ... some pictures to remind us of what spring looks like... wildflower meadow

Every meadow can be a natural shoji screen...

You're in the pink...

The red white and bluebonnets - smaller

Hurrah for the red, white and blue-bonnets...

Tricolor Crapes-smaller

The crepe myrtles come in tricolor, too.

BackSteps

The private and personal patch of paradise.

olive trees and wildflower vista

Olive nursery, oak trees and distant wildflowers.

redbud tree

Redbud in bloom, in old mill ruins.

victorian greenhouse

White greenhouse with arrangment of purple verbena

white lilac

Zen arrangement of white lilac

primroses

A blanket of pink primroses ...

corn poppy

The last word - a red field poppy.

OK, I feel much better now.

Oh, now I'm homesick...Up here in Northern Illinois, we're about 8-10 weeks from scenes like those. It's just ugly, dirty snow around here right now.

Oh, yeah - only a month here in Texas, and mebbe another two-three months elsewhere? We're strong, we can do it! Lemme hear you shout - OK, we're strong, we can last! (I can't hear you! Shout again - WE'RE STRONG - WE CAN LAST!!!)
That's right - now, put on your PT gear, and let's go do a nice relaxing three-mile run...
