The rain has stopped, the sun has come out, and the flood waters are abating. The earth here doesn't know what to make of all of this except to think that is it Spring. On a walk in Oxford this week I was surprised to see so many plants blooming so early. February is snowdrop month -- the first flower to bloom in the early Spring here in Oxfordshire. But this year it seems that everything is trying to bloom at once. I've never seen such an early Spring. Here is what I saw just on the grounds of Nuffield College in Oxford.
Wild Geraniums
English Holly
Dogwood
Fuchsia
Mini Iris
More Daffodils
Asia Lilac Tree
And of course, snowdrops! Happy early Spring!
