Today was the first day of spring. Here in California it has already started to look like spring.
It will be nice to have warmer days, but I hope we can still get some more rain before the end of the wet season.
I am already starting to see buds on my rose bushes.
I even have one rose already. This little yellow rose was named ‘Hope’ by a friend of mine in Canada. It is my first rose of the growing season and gives us hope that we will soon recover from what we are going through.
I took a walk earlier this week to get some fresh air.
I always like walking past this yard in the spring as they always have a nice bunch of Calla Lilies growing in the flower bed.
Here is a colorful tree just across the street from where the Calla Lilies are.
Iris are also blooming already. I love the pattern of these iris. The dark purple and white petals contrast with the lighter purple ones.
I hope it doesn’t rain tomorrow as I need to mow my back yard, but let it rain once I am done.
I was tempted to sneak away from my computer earlier today as the weather was really nice.
