Friendship Friday: February 17, 2023

 

Only 33 days until spring!


Wendy shared photos of her orchid.  These orchids photos are really making me long for one but my house is fairly dark.  They are so elegant!

Well it's a weird winter here in the northeast section of the U.S.  It's been a warm winter and the temps this week have been in the 60s F.  The gardens are confused and folks around here worry about a snow storm in March or April.

Still, it's a lot of fun to walk in comfort and turn our heaters down.

Lorraine gets the prize for the most blooms in her garden!  I may have snowdrops and the daffs are up about 3 inches, but look what Lorraine has:


Snowdrops and Aconite are blooming!


Lorraine's Witch Hazel is blooming!




And her Hellebore--aka Lenten Roses are preparing to bloom a good 5 days before Lent actually begins!

And...over in New Jersey, Sue has her first crocus blooming!  These all seem so early and I can't get over how many things are blooming.

I think we are all getting excited about the advent of Spring!
Have a safe and happy day!


Thank you Wendy, Lorraine, and Sue for sharing your blessings!

Have a safe and happy weekend!

  2. We got 4" of snow yesterday, on the south end of a storm that dumped 9" on Milwaukee. Today it's 22 and blue sky. Tomorrow it will be 40! so all the snow will become a sloppy mess.
