Ah yes, spring flowers. They are a joy to behold. We can learn much from their tenacity and ability to bring beauty even when things are a bit tough and winter continues to cling. They’re especially fun if they begin to sing to us as the animated ones did in Disney’s Alice in Wonderland.
It’s getting to the point where the frost is just about to it’s final show and we can begin to consider planting gardens. If you don’t have bulbs popping up in your garden, I suggest you visit your local nursery to find some spring color. What better way to uplift your spirits than to be around natural things?
I happened to capture these amazing flowers at Windmill Gardens in Sumner, WA. (Did you know that Cisco will sometimes host his show there?) The people there are helpful, the plant varieties are quite diverse and the selection/quantities are aplenty. Plus, while you’re visiting Windmill, you can also pop into the Tea Madame, one of the Windmill Villagers, and get some delicious loose leaf teas. I highly recommend the coconut chai and the citrus green.
What symbols represent spring to you? Is it the snow melting on the mountain? Is it the ability to wear fewer layers? Is it the loss of wearing your favorite handknit items? How do you determine that spring is indeed arrived?
