That Siberian squill looks really nice. What kind of upper temperature range can they handle.

I love the photo of your crocus bank. It has some great natural sunlight and after the cold winter we have had it makes me think spring is just around the corner.

Ted, I don't remember the name of that crocus, but I listed all the varieties here. I hope by perusing the fall bulb catalogs you can attach a name to the one you fancy.

Your Crocus bank is a stunner! I’m so glad Spring has finally made it to your garden. I agree with the other commenters that your daughter has real talent!

OOPS! Happy Birthday Kathy! I’ve been busy with Hospice and getting ready to fly out and drive back from college with Son #2. Things ARE starting to bloom in your neck of the woods!

Yay, Kathy gets to share too! I must echo many of the other comments: Cadence’s photos are truly amazing. And so are yours, of course: such a beautiful sweep of crocus, and what gorgeous corydalis. I hope your other corydalis are ok as well.

Lovely presents for your 50th birthday, I’d say. The crocus are looking spectacular – I had a moment of nostalgia remembering the crocus banks in Ottawa. I have yet to see any here this year.
