Spring colors

When we arrived in France last week, I was struck by all the flowers in bloom. My first thought was of how different places have different spring colors. The very next day, [livejournal.com profile] asakiyume posted about the very same thing.

Here is a sampling of spring on this side of the Black Mountains:



Of course, my bouquet-making urge is in full swing. I love a little bit of country inside, and when we get our Someday Farm, there will be flowers aplenty, with some planted just for cutting.

I posted similar flowers with a horse before seeing your entry.
Lovely photos. And bouquet.

Our winter is purple (helleborus), early spring is white and yellow (snow drops, erantis), and then the colour show starts. Lots of purples, pinks, white, yellows, reds - right now the rape seed plants are blooming, as are the dandelions, so we have fields of yellow. Ours is of course dandelion yellow. :p

Great photos as usual!

These are so beautiful. The top four, especially--the starlike nature of those flowers, but softer, gentler, more fragrant stars....
