The changing colours of spring

Gorgeous sunny spring flowers now


Have you notice the prevalence of yellow in the colour pallette of the early spring flowers? The delicious sunny flowers offered by the spring garden that brighten up our days and feed the early insects - only this morning I watched a bumble bee hunting amongst the pot plants and you know - It had yellow stripes!

I love to go out into the garden at this time of the year to try to snap the first flowers after the first winter days

sweetly scented pale lemon spring primroses
The early primroses always transport me straight back to my childhood

Spring is moving on now!


It has been only as spring has gathered momentum that the blues have started to creep in and I am just starting to spot the shy violets and the first bluebells nestling in the shelter of the cornish banks.

It is such a joy each year to watch the changing colours of the season as the new cycle of life starts again in the garden. Enjoy the spring days ahead :)

I hadn't expected the French lavender to flower at the same time as the Daffodils!
