I enjoy seeing crocus break through the last snowfall of the year - Spring has Sprung. Thank you Dirt - I can always count on your pretty photos.

Love the image and the colour! I have a lot of crocus, but will have to hunt down some of these too. Thanks for sharing! I tip my hat to you.
Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice!

Ah, thank you all!
Lilli, I highly recommend it if you can find the real thing. I hope bulb companies are better with true-to-name sourcing in your area. Around here it's always a gamble. I planted many hundreds of supposedly these and got a yellow river instead Hilarious!

Wish I could grow them here, but they don't do well....not cold enough I think.
Same for hyacinths & tulips.

Would like to see the yellow river, too. Smiling
Bet they'd look great together, e.g. blue fading to yellow.
