Spring bulbs - Tulips and Hyacinths orientalis

Over the fall we mass planted tulips and Hyacinths in the front of the house. As we are only now getting a true spring weather, my bulbs are coming out and flowering or starting to. The past winter was very bad and for a while i really did dread that the bulbs will not make it through the winter.  Anyways i am just too happy to be walking out this morning and looking around the property to see what's springing out of the ground. Here are some lovely pictures for you.

Love Spring

It has been a miserable winter and I can honestly say I have self diagnosed my self with seasonal affective disorder. If you don't know what this diagnosis entails, try googling it. To sum it up, I get depressed during winter. I think everyone can attest to this diagnosis.  Anyways,  for the past few days my garden as been coming to life and wow my joy and happiness is now in full bloom. Her are some lovely pictures of the joy that is happening around me. Love love spring. ..
