Crocus  by beryl

Crocus

One step forward with windows 8 managed this image sooc - but can I do it again I ask !! My 1st lot of crocus - the small naturalised ones have come & gone & now the few bigger crocus I have are in bloom - love the deep orange centre against the striped purple petals . Gary has mowed the lawns for the second time this year --perhaps spring IS approaching !!
I love crocus, lovely capture

Beryl, we had an ice storm last night and mine were covered in 1/4" of ice. Yours are far more beautiful!
