Spring Flowers

Spring is a little belated this year because of the extended winter. After all, we still had snow less than a month ago.

Still, the first spring flowers are in bloom now. Unfortunately, I missed taking a photo of the ipheions a.k.a. white star flowers in Wolfskuhle Park, because I didn’t have my camera with me, when I drove past the park today. But here are some spring flowers from my garden:

I have no idea what these are called, though they are probably some variation of ipheions or star flowers. At any rate, they’re pretty.

The hyacinths normally bloom in March, perhaps even late February in a particularly warm year. This year’s crop is not just a month late, but also smaller than usual.

Some violates bloom in a crack between the mailbox and the driveway.
