Choice Morsels

This clump of Spring Snowflakes in my back garden bed are always a delightful sight in early spring! It's Snowdrops Southern cousin. There are both Spring & Summer Snowflakes and both have identical white flowers with the green dots, like little fancy skirts. The difference is height. Spring Snowflakes make a clump of greenery about 10 inches in height, while Summer Snowflakes have giant-size greenery, ranging 18 inches to 3 feet in height.  So, definitely mine are Spring Snowflakes. 

Today I've got some nice spring shots I caught on a moderately sunny day: Winter Jasmine Bright yellow flowers start dotting bare branches in late January! First Gerber Daisy Bloom! Oddly, mine do better in cooler weather then in the heat of summer. This orange one was the first up just recently. A Shot of That Bit of Yard by the Mailbox With Excess Clover I Was working on Last Wednesday: This is a non-mow area I've been  naturalizing with various ground covers and low-growing bloomers.  I bought some Blanket Flower seed to sprout and put in this area. Blanket Flowers are a native flower and should do well in this sunny spot.
