Our spring this year was about 3 weeks early and quite warm. Everything seemed to bloom at once, even the trees. We had the highest pollen counts on record this year; simply off the chart. The flowers this year were unbelievable. Last fall we planted 100 daffodils and they really added a splash of color to the yard. We're looking forward to them multiplying.

Unfortunately, we didn't take photographs of all our blossoms but we did take a few. The tulips were beautiful. We have a small bed of black tulips that bloomed later but I didn't take a photo of them this year. We also added 5 new bulbs; the "Wild Buffet" bulbs we got from our guests from Holland. We're anxious to see what they look like new spring. They told us the flowers have double petals, whatever that means?
Great grandma's old rose is now blooming and its gorgeous. We don't know how old the plant is but we have an old photos taken in the 1930's showing it. It is at least 80 years old and possibly more.
