So pretty, it looks like a GBBD post.
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are refreshing. I was out photographing blooms today, too, and to think only a couple weeks ago we had snow! Everything is ready to come alive with blossoms. I hope we are finished with frost!
ReplyDeleteWow - so nice to see those first blooms of spring ! My favourite time of year (although we were fortunate enough to miss most of winter for the first time ever !). I hope we'll have some blooms as lovely as these when we get back to Canada in April.
ReplyDeleteI really want a Prunus mume--it has been on my wish list for almost 20 years (it's a big list). Now you have reminded me that it should move to the top. Beautiful hellebore--'Ivory Prince is one of my favorites--great foliage.
ReplyDeleteI love the bloom detail of the phlox. Actually, they are all very pretty!!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see spring has sprung is some areas! It won't be long before we're seeing some lovely blooms too!
ReplyDeleteAll these blooms are encouraging ~ if they are there, then we can't be far behind, right? I've actually got a couple bulbs in bloom (snowdrops and eranthis) so that's perked me up considerably. Happy "early" spring!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! And so nice that you could say "taken yesterday"! Happy Spring!
ReplyDeleteHi Karin, your blooms of pre-spring are so lovely, the captures of them are exquisite. We fear this warm weather, but might as well revel in the flowers! :-)

Ahhh Spring!!!
ReplyDeleteThose are some beautiful blooms! The mume looks almost like a camellia. Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love that flowering apricot. How beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSpring has arrived in your lovely photographs.
ReplyDeleteYou must be in awe ... how lovely!
