Narcissus and Anemone Amore

An artsy version of my first bouquet of narcissus

 and anemones, this year, allows me to forever

 preserve their delicate beauty and cheery character.

 Finding the narcissus among the masses of buttercups that have promptly popped up all over the island was no easy feat!

 

But, thanks to a fruity/floral fusion, their fragrance draws you 

to them, so that no matter how boldly the buttercups beam, 

 it is only the tiny, white narcissus that are seen.

You'll find more narcissus and anemone amore here and here.

What early spring flowers have stolen your heart?

Thanks so much for visiting 

and have a lovely week!

Buttercup Brilliance

 6:45 am, Poppy View headquarters, orange skies just before sunrise.

  

 9:09: My feline ally, Prince Richard, the cat,
misses his wake up call for the day. So predictable.

 9:10: I leave him behind and head for the hills, as planned.

 You snooze, you lose.

 

 The Bermuda buttercups had arrived for their annual visit,

and I was curious to see how they were getting on

 with their hosts, the olive trees and grapevines.

9:49: Everything seemed harmoniously fine, from a distance.

10:15: A serene scene on a canvas of blue; a pretty, pastoral view.

10:34: Up close, it was evident that our generous hosts, 

indeed, had made the little buttercups feel at home, 

giving them plenty of space, in which to stretch and freely roam.

 11:58: At my garden gate, I am greeted with a yawn,

by a lazy companion I can never count on. Shameful.

Happy first day of March!

Spring Countdown

Spring: __ days, (and counting), to go...

Will flowers grow where there is snow? I sure hope so!
