The larger crocuses bloomed!

The weird weather continues. After having a couple of centimeters of snow, it suddenly became very warm and in a few days, we had 20+ degrees in the shade.

Tomorrow a new -5C night time temp is expected, so a good thing fruit trees are still not blooming, but almost... I have hope they will be spared for now.

In the meantime, our larger type of crocuses started appearing, much to the delight of the bees! They really seem to relish those flowers, sometimes spending a minute in there, which is very unusual for a bee.

I loved the bottom one with the bee! Very nice photo. I'm a long ways from having the jumbo crocus flower, but the foliage is up to 4" now.

Thanks! The top one also has a bee inside! 😉
