Choice Morsels

  Today, I thought I'd share 3 pictures of things in my Garden in full Spring Bloom! Everything is signaling that, here in Florida, winter is over! My Porteguese Squill: So unique looking! Had bluish-purple flowers that gradually unfurl from the center! My Winter Jasmine is looking pretty now! It's actually been blooming a few flowers ever since November, but now that's spring is on, it's really getting covered! I keep it trimmed in this draping form. Finally, a have a large cluster of Spring Snowflakes appearing around a stump in a back bed where I planted the bulbs years ago every spring! This photo is a close view of the flowers. They remind me of little white skirts edged with green dots, like small upside down tulips.

Today's Garden Pic is one of my favorite spring flowers:  Spring Snowflakes! It's an old-fashioned Southern garden flower with little white bells dotted with green. Snowdrops are it's Northern cousin and both members of the larger Amaryllis family. I look forward to seeing their little blooms every spring!
