Spring is nature’s way of saying, “Let’s Party!”

Spring Delight

A Spring Garden…

The excitement of the first shoots emerging from the ground and the joy of spring blossoms bursting forth is unparalleled. Every day presents a new surprise, an unfurling, a delight that didn’t exist the day or even an hour before. It is true that “No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn,” and fortunate is the gardener who witnesses these everyday miracles.

A Master Gardener’s View of Spring

I love seeing which plants are pushing through the last bit of snow. I’m always amazed by what has survived the winter. I enjoy being outdoors, observing the birds building their nests, the critters scurrying about, and all the lovely spring flowers that are in full bloom.

Primroses are one of my favourites, and they look so beautiful in the snow. I have many different colours and varieties. Then the hellebores or Christmas roses start to emerge, followed by hyacinth, daffodils, and little snowdrops.

The fragrance of all the flowers is glorious in the spring, as the pond begins to come to life.
