    Did you ever notice that it's the yellow flowers that bloom first every spring? Here's an assortment from my yard.

    This one is a Carolina Jasmine. My neighbor gave it to me to plant on the back fence between our yards. She got the cutting and rooted it. It originally came from Glendann.

    Hope you like yellow flowers. They sure add a touch of color to a gray spring day!

    They certainly lighten up your yard Dooley. :-D Here it's snowdrops that bloom first, followed by crocus and then the daffodils.
