How nice that you have a garden! I haven't had one in years, however there are wildflowers galore around my home.To me it seems generous of God to decorate our world with whimsical beautiful things -Mary
Spring flowers are a joy. I grew up in Northern California. Your beautiful photos remind me of Northern California in February, especially the one of the purple lupine.
Roses and daffodils and lupines all at the same time, how lovely! Here the snowdrops are just starting to flower. The daffodils will be next, and for the roses I will have to wait until June. Hilde in Germany
The land your flowers sit in looks dry (of course) and rocky. Can you tip 15 cms of mulch and soil on top of the ground? Even in a small garden, the beautiful flowers will thank you :)
Some of the flowers are growing on a blanket of gravel that I spread because of the weeds that grow here, underneath it all there are pipes with drips that water them.
Beautiful! You are farther along than we are, unsurprisingly, but as Tom said things here are flowering early too.
Our lupines didn't bloom at all last year. The plants are still alive so I'm hoping they come through this year, but Dave thinks they're probably done. (Apparently they're relatively short-lived perennials.)
The lupines probably come from the area that is completely covered with them. People come from all over the country to see them this season. It is indeed a beautiful sight.
The flowers are lovely, Yael. They help heal our hearts. When I am angry or upset about things I cannot change, I go and grow things. I feel that anything we can do to help make the world better is more useful than just expressing my feelings. Thinking of you Yael Kathy
Thank you Kathy. Your comment really helped me today which is one of my hardest days here in blogland. Perhaps you saw and in your sensitivity wrote your wonderful advice.
Thank you Hilde. Unfortunately, most people believe everything that their television channels broadcast, and the people here in blogland are not always aware of the facts. thanks for worrying.

Spring flowers are always so very welcome after the cold, wet and stormy weather of Winter. Yours are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteThey are actually winter flowers but for me they hint at spring.
DeleteI never thought of Israel having seasons, I thought it was just wet occasionally and dry mostly. Flowers blooming always bring a bit of joy in gloom.
ReplyDeleteThe change of seasons here is very short but still noticeable.

I have a small garden, and wild flowers all around. This is the time when everything is green around, then there is a lot of yellow until next winter.
DeleteHow pretty! There's nothing in the world like watching spring flowers come back. It's good for the soul.
ReplyDeleteThat's right Jennifer. There is something comforting about the cycle of plants.

ReplyDeleteThe area here is known for its fields of lupines, on Saturdays many people come here to admire their blossoms.
DeleteLovely flowers, especially the roses.
ReplyDeleteThese are still the roses they once were, with a real scent.

The roses here bloom for some reason twice a year.
DeleteWe have Camelias, but they never really open properly; I don't think they like the cold.
ReplyDeleteSeveral times I tried to grow camellias which is one of my favorite flowers but I failed.

ReplyDeleteEverything is flowering early here and there is a lot of rain.
ReplyDeleteLovely post. Made me smile :)

DeleteYour flowers are so pretty and cheerful, I love to see new blooms in my garden, a sign of hope. My camellia is blooming now.
ReplyDeleteThank you Tera. Camellia is one of my favorite flowers, unfortunately it doesn't do well in the gardens here.
DeleteThe flowers are lovely, Yael. They help heal our hearts.
