Spring has arrived seemingly overnight. It is a pleasure to find something new blooming every day Here are the first few to open. Above is a Tulip Magnolia.

The Cramoisi Superieur rose came back quickly after all its flowers had frozen. My garden usually has many more blooms, but as I posted earlier, all the plants froze back. Every day more of my frozen babies are emerging from the ground. Hopefully, the garden will be full of blooms for the hummingbird migration.

Your spring certainly does happen quickly, with roses and violets out at the same time. Lovely combination that just doesn’t happen here! đŸ˜ƒ I love Magnolias and would like to try growing one but need a sheltered spot for it. And the snow poppy is pretty too.
Beautiful! I was working outside yesterday and saw some buds on my various lilacs. It’s early so I’m hoping a deep freeze won’t damage the plants. Fingers crossed.
Lilacs bring back memories that I can smell. Someone came up with a southern lilac, but it didn’t survive.
Yup! It’s cold one day, then you blink–and it’s spring! Nice set of shots, love the snow poppy.
How wonderful to see an awakening garden and exciting to think the hummers will be moving northward (they won’t arrive here for 2 more months, always a happy event when they do).
Lovely buds & blooms, lovely this time of year! tzgarden.blogspot.com
Oh wow! What an exciting burst of spring in your garden! Your snowflakes are lovely.
The Snowflakes really like it here and is one bulb that can survive.
Wow! Your garden did wake up! So pretty! The crocuses are adding cheer here,other than a few wild daffodils it’s still in winter mode.
Spring is on its way.
Wahoo! Love the blooms. yes, things are really ramping up and I’m so glad!
Great photos today or yesterday. Love that snow poppy. Spring is so rewarding after that nasty freeze!
I miss not having flowers at this time of the year. The cold north wind is the reason why we never became a citrus capital here.
I didn’t realize that snowflakes would thrive here. They’re so pretty — they remind me of the lily of the valley that I grew up with. The only time I’ve seen them here in Texas was at the Rockport cemetery and at the Hogg plantation in West Columbia. Apparently Miss Ima planted them in the garden there.
They do really well here and mine have reproduced. I thought they were Texas size snowdrops, but one of my reader corrected me. I have learned gardening as I go. Oh yes, I remember Lilies of the Valley and Lilacs and …
I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
