My Crocus are finally blooming clp , but, so far, only the yellow ones have shown their faces. I haven't seen any of the white or purple ones yet. frown

Okay, it took a little while, frown but I managed to get on Photobucket so here is a picture of some of my my yellow Crocus.

I've been moving some of my bulb plants today because I've found many of my Tulips, Daffodils, Mini-Daffodils and Narcissus are coming up in places where I haven't planted them eek . My squirrels like to dig up my bulbs and replant them in other places nutz . They never seem to bother my Hyacinth bulbs, but I guess they're too big to handle. laugh laugh

little cause it's raised...where my crocus's are..

Pretty good to be seeing something like that come up in zone 6.

I'm zone 6a and there's not a thing out there - we've had a warm spell, but still there's a lot of ice accumulation - it will melt off soon though.

Very pretty verbena.

Thank you all for the nice comments! kissies

I have been checking my bulb bed every day to find out if another treasure has popped up overnight. I planted so much out there, that I can't remember what is in there. I am afraid to weed right now because I am afraid I will be pulling up a flower! shocked

It is groundsel, Weezie.

I have always called it wish weed. I remember as a girl picking them and blowing them to make a wish. Didn't know until I was older that that was how the weeds spread...
