More rain


Two more days of rain, looking so miserable outside, the daffodils which have been brave enough to show their happy faces have been rained on so hard that they are looking into the dirt.
I see that the Moorpark apricot is showing bright pink in the buds, 1st season and hope to get some fruit this year, will have to watch for a late frost though, as we will surely get one or two more.
I see the Leucodendron argenteum has not been touched by the frost this year, this will be its fourth year with us, so looks like it has settled in and is mature enough to handle the frost, hope so, as is a beautiful sight when mature.
Found this little coryadalis braing the weather.

Signs of spring at last!

 
At long last spring is coming, these are the first of the crocuses, and it is quite mild this morning so they are showing themselves off.
Have not been blogging for sometime, as have been unwell, but now spring is with us again, feeling a lot better, and hope to be blogging regularly again. Also computer had a bad virus which is most frustrating.
