Following a tip I'd seen on a gardening program I planted some pots up with several different types of bulbs. The theory is that you then get a succession of colour and as each flower dies back there is a new one to replace it. I've completely forgotten what else I planted in these pots so it's going to be a nice surprise watching them come up. So far there is just these sweet little crocuses
Please excuse the light, we have a north facing garden so this time of year it's quite shaded.
Some lovely big shoots coming up here, possibly some sort of daffodil?
We get lots of sunshine round the front so the flowers in my hanging basket positively glow :)
These plants were bought as teeny little seedlings with just a couple of leaves each. They've finally started growing big enough for some flowers to start forming. In the Summer I'll take them out of this pot and plant them around the garden for next Winter
Hehe there's some bulbs in these pots too. I love Spring bulbs :-)
So it's not an entirely plant related post, here's a picture of my stripey sock WIP. These colours are pretty Spring- like too aren't they.
I'll have a new FO to share with you soon. Just need to block it and get some nice photos. I'm planning on casting on a new project today but I'll share more details of that in a later post. Thanks for hopping by.

Love the colours of your sock. I love spring bulbs too, although I am coming up to the planting time of the year here in Australia. Daffodils are my favourite. Every year I order some more and hopefully soon I will have a meadow!
ReplyDeleteOh a meadow of daffodils would be absolutely beautiful :-)
DeleteLike you I enjoy the bulbs come alive and all those plants turning into green again. Love your stripes too!!
ReplyDeleteIt's magical isn't it :)
DeleteThose are such fun colors in your sock.
ReplyDeleteSpring is nowhere near here. We teachers are hoping for a blizzard so we could get a snow day!
Brr chilly! Snow in the UK is a bit rubbish, except maybe in Scotland. Then again people make such a fuss about an inch of snow it would probably blow their minds to have more lol
DeleteCute socks! Perfect for the spring.
ReplyDeletethank you :)
DeleteI'm so jealous of all your greenery! We have nothing but white here. Your sock looks great - bright fun colors.
ReplyDeletethank you :)
DeleteSo many lovely springy things coming up - your garden will be a blaze of colour soon! xx
ReplyDeleteI hope so. This is our first year with our own garden so I'm really excited to see what plants grow and to fill it with colour
DeleteHappy things to make you smile. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteSmiling is good, not been much of it lately :)
DeleteYour flowers are a welcome reminder of the warmer weather to come. We've been blasted with cold snow and colder temps, and I am positively aching for some warm sunshine and flowers.
ReplyDeleteno signs of spring here. We have tons of snow and so sloppy weather coming over the weekend. However I will enjoy your flowers and signs! That sock colorway is lovely, I am into those thick stripes!
ReplyDeleteThe colors in your socks match your pretty flowers..my favorite colors, too.
ReplyDeleteI love those first signs of spring!
