Fritillaries

At the bottom of our garden there is a very large clump of these pretty flowers.
So many bulbs & spring flowers are surprising us, popping up all over the place.
I really like these so was very happy to see their pretty heads.

Three good things:
1. A fantastic day….I sat in the sun all afternoon reading my book.
2. I planted an English Bluebell plant. Hoping it will multiply among the trees.
3. Warm enough tonight not to have the wood burner on.
Oh these are lovely.. I grew them one year but they never did very well and did not multiply .. I think we are to dry and humid for them.. They do well further south and in the South Island.. Bluebells I can grow.. Nice to hear it's warming up..but don't shut the wood burner down yet..

I’ve never seen these although the word sounds vaguely familiar.

These are absolutely gorgeous Pat. You’re so lucky to have so many in the garden.

How lovely, and such a pleasant surprise. I believe they are difficult to establish so you're lucky to have such a large cluster. I bought one last year and put it in a pot but I have no idea where it is now! No sign of it yet

How lovely , It will be amazing what may pop up in your garden now that Spring has arrived ! Such a lovely day I sat in the conservatory and fell asleep for a while till I was woken by the phone bell ! By the time I had come round and established where I was , I missed the call -- annoying as it was the blinds man but no reply when I rang him back ! - he had been out to measure for my Kitchen blinds a week or so ago !

@beryl Oh that is annoying…ring him first thing! The sun does make our eyes take a rest! 🤣

They are gorgeous flowers. I am sure lots of new flowers will be surfacing as Spring arrives.

I love these too. Sounds like my sort of day!

These are rather special, Pat - what's underneath the ground will continue to surprise you. We had our woodturner on for the first time in ages!

@susiemc @onewing I must go out & count the different spring flowers popping up in some weird places….

@pandorasecho @boxplayer A good day & I needed the rest… seemed to have been busy doing not a lot lately! They are very pretty & some white ones which I notice I haven’t got here.

@maggiemae We have lit ours again tonight….a bit too early to do without except for an odd night.

How I love these. Beautiful image. The weather has been glorious these past few days. Glad you're enjoying your new garden space already.
