    Since it isn't spring yet, these will be spring flowers in a few weeks.
    First, some daffodils peeping through in the terrace.

    Second, the Peter Pan iris starting to show. There are more of them under the leaves but I didn't want to uncover them all.

    Other than a few new leaf buds on the rose bushes there isn't much out there.

    I love to see the first signs that spring is on its way. All our bulbs are pushing up through the earth too and I actually have my very first snowdrop in the garden already. :stew1:

    Glad to see your signs of spring dooley. Mine is a long ways off yet. This weekend is supposed to be one of the coldest of the winter yet.

    Yeah for signs of life! Don't they peep up early. I am away from home this week but as soon as I get home I am going to check for new growth.

    I have some grape hyacinths up, too. I forgot to load them on photobucket. They usually bloom when daffodils and tulips are blooming. I don't have any tulips but they didn't do so well last year. It's colder this year so maybe some will come up. It's too early right now. dooley

    Yey, it's nearing springtime! I feel strange to say this, but our nacissi look much the same as dooley's. I envy eileen and her snowdrops. Ours are still green sprouts.

    How nice to see signs of spring. It will be quite a long time for me too.
