First tulip of spring at the Cox household |
The hostas are up.
AND...
When I trimmed back the roses this fall, I didn't bother to pick up what I'd cut off. Awhile back, I noticed the cuttings were green and leafy, so I stuck this one in the ground. He definitely is a tenacious little fellow and had a different idea about his next cycle of life than I did..
Woo Hoo. Exciting times.
ReplyDeleteAnd the bulbs I have ordered (far too many of them) for our Spring have started to arrive.
Excellent! What all have you ordered?
DeleteLovely to see fresh blooms growing. We got another load of snow overnight here....when will it end? Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteMore snow? Oh no. They are still bandying the s word here.
DeleteHugs received and returned.
So Spring IS coming? Thanks for the wonderful tulip Sandra.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day.
Yvonne.
I sure hope so, Yvonne.
DeleteThank you. And right back at ya:)
Autumn here and the past couple of days the temps have reverted to hot and muggy...but...hopefully, from all reports, tomorrow a cool change is due, with a couple of showers thrown in. That I will like! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope this week's weather is perfect for you, Lee:)
DeletePushing on through, as life starts to spring once more...until the cat eats them lol
ReplyDeleteEats, tramples, lays in:)
DeleteSome of the plants that I thought were just DEAD after this really cold winter have started to sprout.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice surprise isn't it, Di?
DeleteIsn't it wonderful how Mother Nature "springs" into action when we need new life and color to bring us out of winter's drab grays and bare branches!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the rebirth at Cox residence 🌷
Hugs❤🌹❤
Indeed, Jan, and thanks;)
DeleteHugs received and returned.
Happy First Day of Spring! My daffs and tulips are buried with more snow on the way. Is it July, yet?
ReplyDeleteSoon, CJ, soon.......
DeleteThis is so exciting! I love to see new flowers coming to life. We just have small sprouts peeking out of the earth. Funny, another blogger I follow, Susie Mac, had a beautiful mom that had a gift for gardening. Suzie decided to do what her mom did, take a Rose cutting and just stick it in the ground and a Rose Bush would sprout. She just had another Rose Bush start growing.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Suzie. I bet it was a Knock Out Rose. Those suckers are hardy.
DeleteNot enough warm days here, but things are peeking through the earth.
ReplyDeleteIt's always great to make those discoveries, isn't it, Donna?
DeleteI'm definitely ready for spring; it's been a long cold winter. Your pictures made me envious; one of the things I don't like about living in an apartment building is that I can't have my own flower garden.
ReplyDeleteI would miss a garden too.
DeleteI am having a terrible week. I can’t stop coughing, my internet keeps going offline, and my keyboard works about half the time.
ReplyDeleteLOVE all the greenery at you house. Happy Vernal Equinox, too.
I'm so sorry you're having a bad week, Elizabeth.
DeleteComputer/internet problems are the pits.
Have you seen a doctor about that cough?
It's been raining today and more is expected this week.
ReplyDeleteWe're in for rain too, Jamie. I'm looking forward to sunshine.
ReplyDeleteAlways so nice to see the fresh blooms and buds appearing.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
It sure is, Jan:) Are plants popping up in your garden?
DeleteYes, the spring plants are slowly beginning to come through.
DeleteI love this time of year.
All the best Jan
Oh, you ARE getting life! I'm seeing some early bulb shoots but nothing else yet. Probably a good thing -- we'll certainly have more snow. Jealous of your tulip!
ReplyDeleteMoe snow. Sigh. There's rumblings of it here too, Jeanie.
DeleteSandra, a HAPPY SPRING DAY to you my friend! I'll be so glad when the weather starts warming up, and I know my wife will as well, for she loves planting in her garden!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with both of you. Our weather has been fairer than in a lot of places but we're still getting chilly days.
Deletea few hostas here have braved the temps; they are calling for ice on caturday; I say hang up the damn phone before it gets here ~~~~~~ ☺☺♥♥
ReplyDeleteHa! Good one:)
Deletewe have a few shoots coming up but so darned cold in Toronto still.
ReplyDeleteI bet it is!
DeleteYay to start of Spring and bright colors! Looking forward to seeing all your flowers as the Spring and Summer progress. Hugs...and Happy Tuesday! RO
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday to you, Rockin Ro.
ReplyDeleteHugs received and returned.
Brace yourselves,
ReplyDeletespring is coming
Sure hope so....without the little white stuff.
DeleteI love to see the new flowers blooming. We don't have much of a flower garden, I have to wander round the streets looking at other people's :-)
ReplyDeleteWe still have snow, but I have to say, in our backyard, it's mostly all gone, for now! LOL! This weekend, I'm going to start putting earth down, even if it's snowing! LOL! love your pictures Sandra! Big Hugs!
