The northeast corner of Mississippi, USA zone 7b
I have lots of Daffodils blooming.
Some are large ones like these that I think are "King Alfred" Daffodils.
Others are small Daffodils, (name unknown) that often produce two blooms on one stem.
I have two clumps of Snowflakes,
Luecojum.
I have only a few Hyacinths.
My Hellebores have been in bloom since our January Bloom Day. The earlier blooms are fading, but the newer blooms still have lots of color.
Wildflowers, Spring Beauty,
Claytonia virginica.
My Spirea is covered in tiny white blooms.
Forsythia is a reliable early Spring bloomer.
Flowering Quince is another early spring shrub.
Ornamental Pear Trees are valued for their beautiful blooms, but their hard, tiny fruits are not edible.
Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

John 3:16"Know ye that the Lord he is God; it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful unto Him and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endures to all generations" Psalm 100:3-5

Beautiful post! The first flowers of spring always excite me.
ReplyDeleteHi Lea! It's been QUITE some time since I participated in Bloom Day, and it made me smile to see your name on the list for this month. I love your posts, and it was so good to see a familiar blog. Hope you're doing well!
ReplyDeleteLook at all your blooms. Nothing of the sort here.
ReplyDeleteLovely spring blooms. Mine are mostly still sleeping.
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have so much beauty around you, Lea. It was snowing here this morning but is now raining. I have seen only a few bits of green peeking through the soil in my garden.
ReplyDeleteWow, these are all beautiful blooms. We are far behind, nothing even close to blooming here. Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty blooms to brighten the day. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteLoving your sneak peeks into what will be blooming in upstate New York in the coming weeks. Right now we have the grand total of nothing although my early white hellebore has had buds on it since January. Hidden under snow practically all of January and February but the snow is melting!
ReplyDeleteSpring looks beautiful in your part of the country, Lea! The daffodils are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteDaffs are so cheerful.
ReplyDeleteAnd still two months away here.
Oh, Daffodils, Hyacinths, and Hellebores...oh my! Mine will be up soon. I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful blooms. Bring on those Daffodils!
