The gloomy winter days, with no flowers make us appreciate the first bulbs of the spring - aconites, crocuses, snow drops, tulips and daffodils. I am sure if I lived somewhere hot I would miss them. However, it must be amazing to live in countries where there are flowers and particularly butterflies all year round!!Nick Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06431235724349702199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-14578318855365785952017-02-18T08:55:55.991+08:002017-02-18T08:55:55.991+08:00Thanks Carol for letting us always excited before ...Thanks Carol for letting us always excited before every 15th of the month, which I often forget.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-63808249713810742892017-02-18T08:54:36.876+08:002017-02-18T08:54:36.876+08:00Your climate in Florida is much-much better for ga...Your climate in Florida is much-much better for gardenibng than oirs here, that is hot tropics.

All of the flowers are beautiful; many of them are similar to what we see here in Florida -- I guess we both live in sub-tropical climates although I think yours is probably more tropical.

I always enjoy seeing garden shows through another blogger's eyes and following along on you tour virtually has been delightful! We are covered under a blanket of snow right now, but I did capture some photos of winter blooms beforehand!

I think i've read already maybe more than 5. Arija is one of the admins in one meme, if i remember right. I read also some who are sick and need prayers, sometimes i am a bit closer to them because i always follow their posts. Thank you so much too Michelle for letting us know, and for hosting Nature Notes.

I was then too lazy to take photos, not even shooting those which got the prizes, i just took those with my personal interest. An Orchid Show will be next month, that is another story.

Just like pansies, which i only see in photos, i wonder why i like them very much to have cross-stitched a lot of them. So the first time i saw them in person in Sweden i was trully smitten. And then there was this snowdrops which i don't know, the first time i saw them in a trip to the mountain in Turkey i really am so amazed. OMG they are so beautiful. <br /><br />If you are like us where these plants are there all year, most of them, you might take them for granted. But they are really amazing to the eyes of the westerners because they live continuously.

I can't say it is beautiful like some of the others, but I have never seen anything like it. I am missing seeing flowers and foliage at the moment. The leaves are off the trees and all of the plants have died back in our flower beds. Hopefully the first bulbs will be flowering soon, though.Nick Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06431235724349702199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-39956828510464540882017-02-08T19:37:13.792+08:002017-02-08T19:37:13.792+08:00What a great plant show.
