Springing Into Life

Signs of Spring are springing up all over.

My tete-a-tete miniature daffs:

But the appearance of loads of frog spawn in the garden pond was unexpected considering how bleak and cold it has been recently:

  1. The miniature daffodils are a delight - so cheering :) We had our first frogspawn last week although I dread to think what effect the sub zero temperatures will have had on it :(

    1. RR: I prefer the miniature ones. If nothing else they stand up to blustery winds. I'm sure my pond was frozen over the day before the spawn appeared.

  2. Daffodils are so cheerful and a delight to see each spring. We had huge naturalized beds of them at our house in Minnesota that should be blooming in another 4 to 6 weeks. I'm sure they are still there even though we aren't.

  3. Your daffs are lovely John! Here in South Africa we are just-just starting to show signs of Autumn, but I don't think I'll be seeing the effect as strong here at the coast as I did inland on our smallholding. Nice day to you!

    1. Maree: Coastal climate can be so very different to that inland.
