Spring is coming. Anyone else want to look at cheery photos?

[colouringindoors]

Just that really. Struggling with the general shitness of covidland... so in an attempt to try and focus on A Good Thing...

Fancy sharing signs of spring where you are? Anything from flora to fauna to your kids paintings .

From my garden today

and

Wow. I have about 3 snowdrops flowering so far, the rest are just green. Tbf I only planted them in autumn, they will probably look amazing next year. I will have a proper look tomorrow when I’m off, see if there is anything to photograph, but here to add a little cheer this evening. Keep focusing on the good things.

Local park.

today

Love those snowdrops!

Lovely bright day but so, so cold

ooo lovely buntys yes just got in - was colder than i expected!
found a very early cherry flower

nice flower

saw lots more snowdrops, purple crocuses and daffs in bud

My indoor daffs are flowering, I have some in a window box but it's lashing so I'm not going out to photograph them

My spring bulbs are emerging and I did my first bit of gardening of 2021 yesterday as it was nice here.

Bit dark now for photo.

cocolapew lightweight love those mini daffs.

tumbleweed lovely. I enjoy gardening but currently have f$%king slipped disc so having to make do with photos!

Snow drops along the canal on our walk on Sunday.
Spring bulbs are coming up in the garden too.

Aww, thank you for the lovely thread and photos (OP, you take really good ones! ) it's nice to see a bit of cheer.
I have a plant that was given to me December 2019 (I can be so precise as it was a birthday present.). It was flowering at the time. I was really attentive to it and it started giong down hill. After that I thought, 'Meh,' it's dying and didn't water it for ages. Well now it's got about 4 shoots coming off it with white flowers on it! (Sorry, can't take photo as on PC.) I realised it doesn't like much water at all. I think it's some kind of Orchid? It came from Tescos' anyway (He forgot to take the lable/tag off. Lol)

Sorry, 'he' being my brother.

thanks kittycat73 really appreciate that x
That's great re your plant - I'm useless with house plants! Interesting to see what the flowers look like 👍

purplesquirrel nice 😁 so good to see the bulbs sprouting too isn't it?

@colouringindoors yes it's great. I love spring bulbs so purposely bought one of those mixed 100 bulb bags last summer. Planted loads in pots & tubs but still had loads left over so have stuck them in various places around the garden & most are coming up now.

Just want to see the pics, thanks, so joining the thread!

This is a great thread. I don't have photos but saw snowdrops on Saturday and it definitely made me feel better.

purplesquirrel that sounds fab!

helpful they do, don't they? Tough little flowers that give us beauty in winter 😊

@73kittycat73 does your flower/plant look like this? If so, yes it's a type of orchid.

This year’s first daffodils!
