Beautiful! I have nothing to say to improve this, and I really looked hard! Are you really getting blooms down there? #1561983

Rita, this is so pretty!

Getting the "blue" color just perfect in these lovely flowers!

These are grape hyacinths, aren't they?

Elaine no flowers from last spring I am tried of looking at snow Tuesday we are suppose to get 4 more inches. Just a view of what's to come it will be here before you know it. Beth not sure! #10964612

It is so nice to see something without snow and cold. I really like the colors in this, even though the flower is at an angle it is my bet it was growing that way! We are suppose to get more snow too, even though the ground hog says it will be an early spring in West Virginia. #10964623

Nope, take this down. It's too depressing. :o)

As much as I'd love spring to be here, we have had an incredibly dry winter and desperately need more moisture or it's going to be a rough summer. #10964639

This is beautiful Rita!!

Jeff we're in the same boat here. I even heard we were having a drought. So strange not to have constant rain this winter. If we don't get some soon summer will be interesting. #10964642

Very nice, Rita. You enjoy your flowers. We may be able to enjoy some winter after all.

It seems our winter has finally arrived. We finally got some rain one day last week. Now they are talking about a full week of rain and maybe even snow in a few days. #10964666

Don't miss the snow and am glad that a nostalgic look at flowers helps brighten your day. As Stephen mentioned, in Southern Calif we are approaching the worst drought in 500 years. Would welcome some rain and snow. #10965144

I would try a horizontal flip.. #10966173
