The first flowers of spring. We long for them all winter and suddenly they appear.

Pretty Crocus Polly. Glad Spring has finally sprung for you.
I have some white ones that bloomed for the first couple of years and for the last 3 or 4 years either I miss the bloom or they just sprout leaves but no blooms. Actually it has been so long since they bloomed I only 'think' they were white, can't remember for sure

Ah yes, the crocus is always the first true sign of spring here. I'm still waiting for mine.
