Daffodils, Magnolias, forsythia, Oh My! Spring’s beautiful blessings graced us early this year. The bountiful array of flowers and colors are almost overwhelming. We have hyacinths blooming at the same time as serviceberry. The delicate purple flowers of redbuds are occurring at the same time as the large red flowers on the quince. The white and purple flowers of crabtrees bring back memories of our childhood. (My Grandmother told Tom and I not to eat those apples…)

“Look!” My daughter exclaimed. “They‘re blooming.” Sarah had just spotted a cluster of purple-and-yellow crocus flowering on the south side of our home. She saw something beautiful in the landscape and wanted to share. Sharing, that is what this column is all about.
