This week I walked my garden taking stock of plants showing life, or not. My eyes looked down and was surprised to see clumps of Crocus in full bloom. Royal purple, buttercup yellow and white greeted me. Though I am unsure where the white ones came from as it is the last “colour” I want to see after months of snow.
My ears perked up to the thrum surrounding my feet. Honeybees! They had woke from winter slumber and were sipping nectar of the Crocus. My heart jumped at this omen. Truly a good omen. I walked around the garden and everywhere there were blooms not just from Crocus but Scillia as well. The tiny blue flowers that are harbingers of Spring were filled with Honeybees. O happy days!
If one looks closely you will find Honeybees sipping from the royal purples. The perfect beginning to Spring in my garden.
