A Hint of Spring

I bought this pot of hyacinths last week and they were just barely budding. This week they are almost fully opened. What a wonderful fragrance they send thru the house. Just a hint of Spring!

Blessings

Linda

  2. Your Hyacinths are beautiful I planted bulbs in my garden a few years ago and they have divided and are just beautiful when they bloom providing I can keep the slugs out of them.
    Your Organic Gardening book caught my eye because my mom had one just like it. I remember it sitting oh her table.

  5. Oh, that makes me long for the end of winter even more. I'm sure hoping that groundhog doesn't see his shadow this year. I'm sooooo ready for spring.

  6. They are just beautiful. Is that a vintage valentine peeping in at the edge of the photo?

  10. Dear Linda,

    Yes, just four weeks to go and our gardens will wake up again! I am longing for spring!

    I am glad you like my little bags. Yes, I had a pattern for them! All those TILDA creations I show on my blog are out of a wonderful book called "Sew pretty homestyle" written by Tone Finnanger.

    Have a wonderful week-end!

    Best wishes, Anita

  13. Oh LInda, you are such a sweetheart. It looks like all the pattern pieces are there, and my gd likes the one that has a kids size. So many fun goodies you included. I just couldn't believe it. It was "Oh look at this" over and over again as we went through it. Can I talk about it on show and tell? The Workbasket mags alone are an awesome collection! I was reading through them and marvelling at some of the ads and information.
    Thank you, thank you!
