Cozy Crocus

They’re popping up everywhere! Crocuses and other classic spring flowers that is! Lots of daffodils, crocuses and hints of tulips to come are springing out of the ground. I wonder if the Northwest has an earlier spring bloom than the East coast? I have yet to see my favorite Lily of the Valley anywhere….

Somehow I notice these early blooms much more here than I did when I lived in Los Angeles. Maybe it is because I walk more? These pictures were taken at a pretty little public garden near my office in Belltown.

I planted some tulip bulbs a real estate broker left on my front door as a promotion of some sorts. I put them in a little late but am hopeful they grow. Now that I am more settled in my new home I will be more proactive with gardening this year. Can’t wait! Spring remains the one season we have yet to experience here in Seattle as we arrived last July. At the rate things grow around here I am really looking forward to this and I can’t wait to get gardening! What’s going to grow in your garden this year? Now is definitely the time to start thinking about it!
