Thank you @crawgarden, @Fleur569 and @greenappleagnes for your nice comments.

Thank you @Fleur569, @Frenchy21, @greenappleagnes and @plantmanager for the thumbsup.

I can't wait till the spring flowers all show up. I have some snowdrops coming up here. I'll have to check all my flowerbeds soon. It's been rainy and muddy here after some snow.

Here's the pic I made the banner from.

Wow! Your tulips are very happy!! Do you know the name of the tulips? Is the crocus Flower Record?

I do love snowdrops! They're on my wish list. Smiling

My hellebores just started blooming a week or so ago. Winter jasmine has been blooming for a while and the Almond just started. It's beginning to feel like Spring!!

Casey,

In the section of the purple crocuses above, I planted these tulips (left to right) the fall of 2014: I'm pretty sure they are Flower Record crocuses.

Darwin Hybrid Tulip (Tulipa 'Cherry Delight')
Darwin Hybrid Tulip (Tulipa 'Pink Impression')
Darwin Hybrid Tulip (Tulipa 'Orange Balloon')

In between and behind Cherry Delight and Pink Impression are some Single Early 'Jenny' Tulips that were planted the previous fall of 2013.

The wild bunny rabbits chewed on the tops of the tulips.



In these two pics below (April 10, 2015) Cherry Delight on the left, Pink Impression on the right of that and Orange Balloon still in bud form with a couple starting to open in the first pic.

I'm looking forward to the end of winter (and its winter type of weather) and the start of spring.

I'm happy everyone liked my banner.

I am so ready for spring! It started warming up around here around the first of the month, but now we're back to minus degrees at night, and a snowstorm coming this weekend. Your banner cheered me up!
