In a Vase on Monday: Assurances

Posted on April 12, 2021 by johnvic8

After a long absence I am happy to rejoin the meme In a Vase on Monday, sponsored by Cathy at Rambling in the Garden. With no garden on a third-floor screened porch, I am left to enjoy such flowers as I can purchase locally.

Daffodils in bloom are assurances that spring has indeed come to North Carolina, and the annual cycle continues. I also appreciate the color they bring to my porch. Perhaps a glass of wine on a warm spring evening would add to the festive atmosphere.

Please visit Cathy at https://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com/2021/04/12/in-a-vase-on-monday-sugar-rush/ to see what she and others are sharing this week.

    Love daffodils! They say “Spring” to this transplanted East Coast gal.
    In southern California, they bloom in Jan/Feb, which is VERY confusing to me. My “native” seasons are still from my birthplace, despite the fact I’ve lived longer in SoCal.

    Lovely! Glad you have a little space to put some flowers at least John, and keep in touch with the seasons. Best wishes for Spring to you and your wife.
