The first wild viola of the season in my city

in life •  7 years ago 

Happy Saturday with one of the most beautiful wild flower: the viola! 

Here in Italy we say tha when viola are in bloom is a sign that Spring is coming and now we really need to feel a bit of Spring after toomuch days full of clouds and rain ^_^

The flowers of Viola can be used in different way, especially to eat! For example, for their aroma,  the essence of these flowers is used to cook some cakes and cream. Even if I've never used them in my kitchen, sometimes I eat the candied violets and I have to say that they are really good ^_^

See ya soon and enjoy your weekend ^_^

Earlier today I saw a few tiny purple flowers in my yard start to come up. They are crocuses. They are the first flowers I see come up every year when I am in this state and it always gets me so excited for Spring!

I love crocuses, we have many of them on the mountains close to my city ^_^
