Luck of the Irish to You

Bernheim's first Magnolia Hybrid trees are beginning to burst open with soft white blooms. Spring is showing definite signs of awakening with yellow Daffodils and purple Crocus.

Yet Winter continues to hold tight bringing cold temps and snow showers making its way across the Heartland. Hang on Spring as the warm breezes, the golden sunlight, the bright greens of new grasses and the vibrant colorful blooms will come. And least I forget, and in remembrance of my Mother's heritage which she gracefully left with me and mine, "Luck of the Irish to You", on this St. Patrick's Day Sunday. ENJOY!

Flower Friday

What with the snow falling intermittently all day yet melting before it stuck to the ground, I felt some flower power was in order to take us into the weekend. This image was taken on March 10th last year at Bernheim. There's a rumor out on the street that the Daffodils are blooming right now at Bernheim, so perhaps I'll make a trip over this weekend or next week. I'm finding it hard to believe that we're going to have an early Spring like last year. It's still very cold and snowy. On a side note, I've been having a heck of a time posting. Blogger changes my colors of the text or changes my colors and underlines it. It's not formatting things correctly so I'm having to do it manually. If anyone else is having issues, please leave me a comment and let me know. It's driving me a little crazy. Have a great weekend all. ENJOY!
