    Happy Spring to everyone from Nebraska!! I am SO thrilled to have some color in my garden!
    We have had an incredibly nice, warm week and blooms are really popping! Just today, I am seeing the yellow of Forsythia, and Daffodils and Crocus are waving in the breeze! YEA!
    Every garden I go to has green things emerging and buds swelling! It is the best time of the year for me!
    Happy Gardening to you all! ;)

    Thank you so much, Kay for this nice post with colour!
    It is so good to see the crocuses, daffs and forsythia...I get a good spring-feeling when I see your pics.

    Thank you Sjoerd1 I swear the Forsythia almost bloomed before my eyes today! That little plant was a reject last fall that I adopted. I am so glad it made it through winter. I'm looking forward to it growing big and strong! :D

    Eileen, It would be an honor to have a visit from you, and any other Garden Stewbie who happens to be traveling along Interstate I 80!
    I just LOVE spring!
    Next, I am anxiously waiting the "pips" of my Hosta, and the blue flowers on the Brunnera, and on, and on..... :stew2: :stew1: :stew2:

    Congratulations, Kay! :D The forsythia hasn't started yet, but we do have a few brave crocus. But soon... I hope!
