Spring Is In the Air

 

Spring is in the air here in desert.  We've had some very nice weather lately with mid-afternoon temperatures hovering around 78 degrees.  I had the urge for another walk yesterday afternoon so this time I went to the Japanese Friendship Garden.  I wanted to see if anything was blooming there and I wasn't disappointed.  There were quite a few pretty daffodils poking their pretty heads up.


There was only one tulip but it was a real beauty. Such a wonderful shade of blue. 


















I saw several patches of these iris-like flowers that I don't believe I've ever seen before.  I did the Google search and came up with a name Iris Reticulata.  
Pretty spring flowers is just what I needed to help chase away the remnants of the head cold I've been working to defeat.

This is so encouraging to see as we have so much snow on the ground here, Sharon. Beautiful flowers.
