We're enjoying warmer temperatures this week, around 16'C in the afternoons, and more and more colour is coming back into the surroundings at last... I didn't walk very far today, but stopped and snapped a couple of photos of Forsythia hedges now bursting into bloom here and there in my neighbourhood. (The yellow brick buildings in my immediate surroundings all look very similar - but there are different kinds of flowerbeds and hedges around them.)
I have a forsythia branch in a vase at home, too - but that is a fake one, not stolen from one of the outdoor hedges... As some followers might remember by now, I have a number of different fake branches and flowers for this vase, which I vary with the seasons.
Your fake ones look so real!!
ReplyDeleteGinny, they do, and I'm glad to have them!
DeleteOurs (real ones)! in the garden have virtually finished flowering and are now mostly green. That welcome splash of yellow is almost over.
ReplyDeleteJayCee, I'm not surprised - I have understood from several British blogs that spring is much further along over there. And in Germany too.
DeleteWonderful to see the blooms on those hedges. Someone knew the right time and how much to prune them so they'd have full blooming as early flowers.
