Thank you for catching these beauties at their best, for your kind words upon visiting But Wait today, and for seriously tempting me to violate my self-imposed ban on the purchase of t-shirts... that one to the right is a great one!

Wow - this is like time travel, seeing these and sensing your joy at their appearance I remember my own at our first crocuses months ago. Here we are in full tree leaf, two and a half months of daffodils and narcissi are just about done, the Bath Pinks are fully open (with their powdered sugar fragrance), daisies... It's amazing what latitude does, the fugue of spring blooms moving north.
