for another season! We stopped on our way to the grocery store and chatted with the woman who lives in this house. She mentioned that her mother planted these crocuses back in 1960. What a wonderful gift that keeps on giving.

Hi Bill.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that these flowers have given pleasure every year for so long.
Greetings from Patricia.
I can remember the beautiful garden of this house! That is a real gift from heaven!
ReplyDeleteCan the crocuses live that long? They are my age!
It will be a while before we see them here.
ReplyDeleteHola! unas flores muy bonitas.Besos
ReplyDeleteSpring is here right after the winter temperatures we had. In one week from winter to spring, can't believe it. From skating to cycling in the sun!
ReplyDeleteAmazing... your flowers are away ahead of us here in Canada.

Lovely inspiration for a new Haiku 🌞☕
Thanks Jan. You have a nice talent coming up with these haiku.
DeleteThank you Bill.
Delete...we will have to wait.
ReplyDeleteThat's so wonderful. Great they have lasted so long! WE have a rubarb plant that I wonder how hold it must be. We found it when we moved to a house when I was young, and when we left we transplanted it because my brother loved rubarb pie. However, some years it grows better than others.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly endure.
ReplyDeleteI love it! The gift of beauty year after year.
ReplyDeletebeautiful yellow...love it.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely a wonderful gift from her mom to keep blooming and a reminder of her. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWow, that makes me hope that spring is not too far away. Thank you, Bill.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty and hopeful. Ours are still under the snow, so no idea what's going on. But soon, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteSpring has sprung!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to plant something like crocus's or a tree that may last longer than we will.
It is always a thrill to see the crocuses in spring. I can hardly wait!
ReplyDeleteThe pretty early blooms certainly do catch our attention! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIncredible! Those bulbs don’t wear out.
ReplyDeleteOhh they are beautiful! :)))
ReplyDeleteThey are older than I am!
ReplyDeleteA good sign of hope. Thanx Bill.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Solamente he visto esa flor, a través de fotografías.
ReplyDeleteBesos
How nice, spring has started. Look forward to that happening here too. :)
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely, and it's a nice cottage too.
ReplyDeleteNice to see this sign of spring and great that they are healthy and continue to grow after all this time.
ReplyDeleteCheerful days are back!
ReplyDelete1960, No Way - I Need To Hand Out A Few Bulbs To Friends - Be Well Mr Bill
ReplyDeleteCheers
A wonderful sign that Spring is coming :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photograph.
All the best Jan
Bello jardín, linda fotografía. Te mando un beso
ReplyDeleteSo Great if the crocus plant could survive this long.
ReplyDeleteThe plant still looks fresh and fertile.
Plants will protect humans if humans also take care of them
So that there is a natural balance.
Have a nice week
Regards
