Every single year I am surprised by early Spring color. I knew various bulbs were poking out of the ground everywhere. However it was Brad who spotted groups of these colorful lovelies first, from a distance.

These are my hands down favorite Crocus!! I've been tucking these misnamed bulbs into the ground for decades. These crocus are neither ruby, nor giant. The blooms did grow larger in clay soil at our previous home. They are the first blooms, reliable and provide welcome color.
Welcome Spring!!

Oh wow, those are big and beautiful! Mine are tiny little things and get busted by creatures stepping on them. The daffodils by the house are coming up too. Soon enough the forest will wake up too.
I love crocus. They are such welcome harbingers of spring. I planted a ton of them many years ago, but not many come up anymore. Time to plant more! Absolutely beautiful !
So lovely! If we didn't have so many deer here I would consider planting them . All my flowers are in deer proof enclosures.
I love that crocus come in all different colors/sizes/bloom time. The larger ones don't do as well for me. Crocus are suppose to be deer resistant. I would think the smaller species would fair better. Most of mine here are planted in a bed next to our house.
So pretty! They brighten up a cloudy day!
