Maybe there’s a good side. Nothing like a cosy huddle 🙂
looking pretty in purple Tish but hate to think we’ll be blue with cold again soon – winters way of saying goodbye. I’m heading as far south as possible this weekend – Bournemouth not Antartica!
Wow yours were much more open than ours here in P.A. The icy blasts came yesterday and are here for the week. Climate change you ask? Simply a change in the weather.
Crocus. Funny you guys should call the same as us frogs. 🙂 I remember my mother telling me that those flowers could actually grow through the snow. Perce-neige. Or maybe I am confused with another flower?
Apparently crocus and “perce-neige” are different. Perce-neige is a closer relation to daffodils. Here’s the link to perce-neige. (En Français I’m afraid, but the pictures are nice) https://jardinage.ooreka.fr/plante/voir/114/perce-neige
Ah-ha! Snowdrops. We’ve had loads this year – all along the hedgerows of Wenlock Edge. They are the earliest spring flowers. But thank you for their French name. I didn’t know it and it’s lovely. I don’t mind links in French. I can read it enough to get a gist – just don’t speak it very well.
English and french are sufficiently close to make reading relatively easy. I’ll keep that in mind for the next links. 🙂
Gorgeous!
Early 20s down here, but I hear thunder rolling in. If there’s lightning about will have to disconnect. Haven’t seen a crocus in years!
So beautiful.
These ones were specially lovely – v. delicate like autumn crocus.
Gorgeous blooms, Tish. I wonder if they would grow in Florida. Stay warm. 🙂 xx
I think they might get a little red in the face!
🙂
I’ve heard of the due blast in your country…and hope for the best , for both people and harvest…
Those crocuses are awesome!
Grateful for your good wishes, Anna 🙂
Beautiful 🙂
Sadly my crocuses finished a couple of weeks ago, but they did bring me great pleasure. Now the forget-me-nots are opening!
Ah lovely blue faces to make up for lack of crocuses. They’re not so flimsy either.
Indeed. It was the winds that did it for the crocuses. Now I have bendy hyacinths 😦
What a beautiful day….we will make the best of it whilst here….because who knows what the wind will blow in 🙂 Janet.
I’m just off to the allotment to catch the last of today’s sun. It’s been just glorious here.
Beautiful. We’re thawing out after some of March’s always-crazy weather: snow and cold. Hopefully the plants have all survived.

Burrr…cold here in Michigan.
I think we may be joining you in the big shiver 🙂
💨❄️😩

Best place for sun, I believe, if there’s any to be had. Have a great weekend beside the sea.
Your crocus ar simply divine. 😀
Cheers, Cee 🙂
if any of our crocus were up, they are frozen today. Oh well. Spring is never a certainty!
Hey ho!
Don’t they just beam at you? 🙂 🙂 Glorious day in Anglesey today.
You’re THERE. Lucky you. Will expect a full report.
Arrived home an hour ago, Tish, but I really enjoyed it. 🙂
They are beautiful, Tish. We suddenly had well above 20° in Norwich today …

They are positively glowing and I refuse a return to winter!
It’s a bit shivery today though. Back to the woollies, methinks.
Exactly, my crocuses naturalizes weeks ago, a month ahead of the usual.
Beautifull ❤ :-*
Many thanks, and for the follow too 🙂

I’ve never seen them growing through snow, but like the idea that they might 🙂
