Bloomed

[Cliphead]

What a day. After the excellent weather the grounds are blooming and looking almost summery today.

A real splash of colour from the spring plants and buds on the trees looking close to bursting out.

sounds great!

All the spring flowers are coming out over here so all the local farmers fields ( qu'elle surprise, cloggers being the worlds biggest flower exporter) are in bloom, some fantastic colours on the way into work atm.

I went to Wisley yesterday and thought it was in great shape despite the late start to Spring.

Oh crap. CH has turned into a flower arranger?

The leaves on our trees turned up about 3 weeks ago. Had a lovely (late!) display from the spring bulbs - with the allium still to come - and have bedding plants in.

I went to Wisley yesterday and thought it was in great shape despite the late start to Spring.

Went to the Keukenhof at the weekend, pretty impressive but still lots of tulips still to bloom, normally this time of year its pretty much over.

Cut the grass yesterday for the first time this year, eyes are burning from the hayfever.

Also yesterday was the first day in probably 8 months I was out running and started off with just a t-shirt on top. That is a tulipe state of affairs really.
