Blooms for Easter

Beautiful Easter Sunday morning.  Great day.  After church we worked in the garden and photographed the flowers.  Here's what is already blooming in our neck of the woods.

 

Look what I found

Well after finding the crocus Monday, a tornado Tuesday, today I decided to scrap off some of my leaf mulch in case something else was starting to grow.  I found two anemic yet hearty hyacinths under about 5 inches of wet leaves.  I think with a little sunlight they should green up and bloom nicely.

Under all the leaves - spring

Spring came sooner than I thought.  I found fully bloomed crocus under the leaf mulch I had not yet cleared off my garden.
