I suppose it's blooming in its own way, anyway.<br />I think it's perfectly legitimate to include your neighbor's almond blossoms - they're part of your borrowed landscape. And it's probably just as well your apricot blossoms are not out: they might end up as battered as your spunky little anemone!MulchMaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13848950758103138175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-441141568118034925.post-1501339446307706772010-03-15T23:24:24.362+01:002010-03-15T23:24:24.362+01:00My daffodils are only just poking up through the e...My daffodils are only just poking up through the earth, but the rosemary has been going most of the winter here too, and today I saw some deep magenta rosemary flowers!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11430236104525571846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-441141568118034925.post-48803319984357839912010-03-15T20:19:26.567+01:002010-03-15T20:19:26.567+01:00A great photo of the lichen - it's as rich in ...A great photo of the lichen - it's as rich in colour as many flowers.HappyMouffetardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157145094611234176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-441141568118034925.post-2551355206044500552010-03-15T17:01:10.641+01:002010-03-15T17:01:10.641+01:00The rosemary here has kept the bees very happy.

The only real damage was a lemon tree I hadn't covered in time.<br /><br />Didn't know it was bloom day, but was just about to post some pretty wild flower pics.Heikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999245793961798308noreply@blogger.com
