It takes only a few days of moderate temperatures for daffodils to start pushing their way up through the still cold ground and the layer of leaves which have sheltered them from the most bitter cold. It won't be long until bright yellow blossoms are nodding their heads in the breeze and silently whispering "Come on, Spring!"

Hi Pat, Our daffodils are 'emerging' also!!! Does that mean that Spring is coming??????????????
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great week.
Hugs,
Betsy
Mine have pushed up thru the earth and I can barely wait for the many colors of yellows pinks and creams to lift their heads toward heaven!

What a wonderful thought....the emerging of spring growth from the earth. Good choice for "E". I can't wait until spring flowers start emerging around here. Right now we are in that transition time of snow and mud.
ReplyDeleteI got little tulip pieces sticking up. I think I need to plant some daffodils though!
ReplyDeleteThe blueish color makes that photo really nice! So spring is coming? Are you sure? Good! We need a bit of warmth and sunshine. Just like the daffodils.
ReplyDeleteLove the blue in this picture!! Also like the effect of the fall leaves with a springy color - Great Job!!
ReplyDeleteHi Pat
ReplyDeleteThere's no better sign of spring than daffodils here in the UK.. we have snowdrops a plenty... but no signs of daff's just yet.
Thanks for the visits and messages while I've been resting.

Your daffodils have technicolour clothing compared to mine! They're my favourite flower though, whatever the colour of their leaves...
ReplyDeleteHow funny (as in peculiar, not ha-ha)! I posted today about spring also and included a picture of jonquils. It must be a collective unconscious thing. Or maybe we really are all part of the Borg (see Star Trek - The Next Generation.
ReplyDeleteHello Pat, I saw already daffodils in the mainstreet of my village. Thank you for the sign of spring!
ReplyDeleteUnless it warms up more here, I don't know if our daffodils will come out before Easter.
ReplyDeleteHi Pat, Thanks for the visit and comments. Are you getting the fever? I sure am. Little green sprouts,plant catalogs,and warm days like today, all make that urge to get your hands dirty overwhelming. Almost there.
ReplyDeleteExciting to see new growth!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I just love when Spring comes and so many wonderful things emerge from the ground! It is such a blessed time!
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at the resistance of bulbs to cold weather. They must produce their own antifreeze!
ReplyDeleteWe have green shoots all over the place, but so far only the snowdrops are blooming. Even the winter pansies have been frozen into submission.
That is a such a beautiful idea and image.
ReplyDeleteMine are trying to emerge, also. I am hoping that they survive.
ReplyDeleteOurs are pushing up too but I've never seen any blue shoots before!
ReplyDeleteThey sure do have a blue hue to them. I suspect it will still be awhile until we're seeing those signs of spring here. Lovely shot, Pat.
ReplyDeleteVery nice shot. Are the leaves really that blue, or is that the lighting?
ReplyDeleteEmerging is a wonderful E word...very creative of you!
Ooh, what a pretty shot! The leaves are an amazing color! I love daffodils because they always strike me as such a happy flower :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Pat your Emerging E look almost blue, great shot/ Tyra
