The progression of spring

Despite this morning's freezing temperature (and the HARD frost on my car) spring has been abundant. You want proof? Check out our yard -

The redbud tree went from this


to this (in several warm days)


The [later] planted hyacinths went from this


to this


There's pollen on the pansies (and on the car and EVERYTHING else for the matter)

(you can also see our 2-for-1 blooms on the hyacinths here - score!)

Our Tuscan Blue rosemary bush has finally produced some blooms (one sprig anyway)



Nifty shrub with really cool frilly blooms (I cannot remember the name of it to save my life!)

And finally, another view of the sky through the corkscrew willow - it was quite the mixed sky (some rain, maybe flurries, and blue!)
