Spring Has Sprung!

At long last - it seems to me - I have something blooming in my yard! I was dismayed to find a neighbor whose crocus had bloomed before mine. Mine are always first. Today as I was dashing out to the car, a flash of color caught my eye:

Siberian Iris

I cannot remember a time when the Siberian Iris bloomed before the crocus! How unusual. The first crocus produced a bloom overnight. Yesterday there was not yet a hint of color (I checked three times). At noon today, there is a bloom about to open.

Crocus

I might find it all the way open later this afternoon...
