I 
went out today in the back yard armed with our camera.I found several signs of spring and wanted to share them with friends that are still stuck in the ice-age.The hyacinths are the giant variety.They are any where from 12 to 18 inches tall. I received them in a Valentines flower arrangement about 7 or 8 years ago.When they were thru blooming I planted them in the back yard.
Next on the list is my blueberry bushes. I planted them in 1994 and 95. I usually have enough for all the sisters and fill my freezer up too.I also share with a few friends.One year I picked till I got tired,then let the birds finish rest.My freezer couldn't hold anymore and no one wanted to pick them.(that was before they went up to $2.99 a quart).I lost one of my bushes and replaced it last fall, it looks like a baby beside the other ones..LOL. I also noticed the fig tree is budding out.I hope it doesn't get frost-bite....it won't hurt the blueberries.
I'm still fighting the cold thats going around..but so is everyone else...it does like to linger.I hope everyone is having a good week....This waitress is tired and I'm going to look for a real hot bath...to soak my feet in ya know?LOL
Have a good week and enjoy the pictures...I think spring fever is getting to everyone.

There are signs of Spring all around me here, too. My redbud is about to burst into full bloom and my daffodils are blooming, among others.
It's been a hard day, emotionally. Hard week, actually. But, as I told Cecil, this too shall pass.
Hope you feel better soon, Sister.
Love you,
Joe
Haven't checked on your sister yet but I will.
Lovely flowers.
I envy you the blueberries. They're like buying platinum here (and so are pecans).
Even things like okra and zucchini are expensive.
Wow, all those blueberries!! As Ann said, they're quite expensive to buy here in CA. Love your giant hyacinths too. Isn't spring uplifting!
hugs!!
Lovely flowers! Your Spring is ahead of mine by at least a few weeks. Things are beginning to grow and bloom and sure are appreciated. Everyone is ready for SPRING!!!
Well your yard is springing up very nicely!! Love all the pictures!! It's looking like spring here too and I'm mighty thankful!! Those blueberries sound great!!
Great photos, of a pretty garden.
We are heading into Autumn, so not much flowering happening.
Enjoy the Spring.
Take care, Meow
Such pretty pictures, Donna. Thanks so much for sharing the eye candy! :-)
And thanks for visiting my blog and saying what you did. You and I are of one heart, it sounds like to me!
Peace~ Andrea
