Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, Valentine's Edition: It's Spring!

[queerbychoice]

Spring may be more than a month away by our human calendars, but my plants have already begun their celebration of its arrival. Daffodils everywhere! Even several of my shrubs are blooming. And the first of my California native annuals! I have far more to show you for Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day this month than last month

Wow, so many flowers already! We saw some snowdrops a few days ago, but that's it for this area for another few weeks I should think.

I am so glad to see anything blooming anywhere!!!

Beautiful, seeing flowers (I live in upstate New York). I have never seen a "five spot" so I had to look it up; appears to be a relative of borage. I wonder if it is something I would be able to grow as an annual. Thank you for brightening up my winter day.

As it's been in the single and negative digits here the past couple of days, seeing these is glorious. Love the five-spot (and all of your plants)!

though my houseplants have started enthusiastically throwing new growth in all directions in response to the changing light, the last time i went outside it was -25C (-13F) with a vicious, cutting wind. this is all very heartening to look at, thank you.
