5 Signs of Spring

February 18th, 2011

1. It’s 74 degrees today.

2. Isn’t it amazing that a daylily can go from this…

…to this overnight?

    I guess a little warm weather built some confidence. If I were a flower, I would totally ask out that daylily.

    Kind of a creepy question, but where exactly are you from? Where I am, there’s still about three feet of snow on the ground! And although it’s been unusually warm the last few days, we’re nowhere *near* flowers blooming yet! I must say, I am quite jealous.

      I live in North Carolina (just outside of Raleigh). I’m jealous of your snow! I love fall and winter, but the cooler seasons are so short here. I need to move north!

  4. That lily picture is AMAAZZIINNNGG! I’m soo excited for spring! :D

  5. Such a beautiful post. Thank you for showing us all of your natural beauty growing in! I can’t wait for the fields here to be full of flowers again.

    Oo La La, Spring beauties are abounding in your yard. I love them.

  7. Here in NH we still have tons of snow…
    I can’t wait to see my crocuses!

I love your comments more than I love chocolate (almost).
