Croci in the Sun



Pale croci (or crocuses) cluster companionably, lifting upwards to soak in the warm of the sun in a week that has seen howling wind and rain, frosty mornings and even snow. Fresh green shoots. Pale blossoms. Simple and lovely.

  12. I was just admiring the yellow crocuses on the blog of a certain someone in your life, and now find these lovely lavender ones on yours. I'm trying to remember the colours of those planted in my garden last fall; you're starting to make me long to see them, Lorrie. Patience.

    I hope your week is a beautiful one. Thank you for sharing the crocuses at Sunlit Sunday.

  17. I'm only finding them in my archives, maybe I will print out some photos, and place them in the garden, to make spring jealous.

  23. Growing up in California I never knew the beauty of crocus.
    When I moved to Kansas and I saw them come up through the
    snow I was enchanted. What beautiful harbinger of Spring.
