Springs Blooms

I am amazed at the number of flowers, plants and trees that have

crawled out of hibernation in the last week or two ..... suddenly a shrub

that looked half dead is covered in flowers or leaves.   This is why Spring

 is such a time of renewal, not only in nature but I think within ourselves too

 ..... there is a palpable energy in the air that I find so inspirational. A time

to do things, try new things, stretch our limbs and our minds ....

The picture above is of the Wild Garlic plant (Tulbaghia) indigenous to South Africa

the tiny white blooms of one of the Spirea shrubs above, and, below tiny white Erigeron daisies.

when I took this pic, the wind up up slightly, hence this image is not 100% sharp,

but I love the effect created from the subtle movement.

I wish you a great week ahead!!
