“It's spring fever....
You don't quite know what it is you DO want,
but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!”
~ Mark Twain
"All through the long winter, I dream of my garden. On the first day of spring, I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth. I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar."
~ Helen Hayes

ReplyDeleteI particularly like the new growth on Ferns, I reckon they're at their best in Spring.
Wow Joey - so much bloom! Can't wait for our Virginia bluebells to pop here - after three years of waiting, they're finally about to bloom.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous photos! Happy Spring!
Lovely! Yellow is so cheery after a long, dreary winter. But, all of your blossoms are just gorgeous. Oh, and that Twain quote? Perfect! :)
ReplyDeleteUnfurling ferns, my favorite too, Rob. Joyful wishes for another stunning spring.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Linda. In the 'Rustle of Spring', this is all about to pop!
Thanks Kate ... I love Twain's quote too!
It looks like spring has finally arrived full force Joey, I think we made it!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic quotes followed by a delicious slide show! Even the dandelion looks wonderful. Happiest of Springs to you dear Joey. gail
ReplyDeleteLovely spring images Joey. It's finally sprung!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful slide show, music and poetry! It is amazing how much is going on in spring all at once right before our eyes.

I just opened the window in my office, and the chattering of birds this morning provided the perfect backdrop to the lovely music and images of your slide show. A gorgeous tribute to spring, Joey--it does make your heart ache with joy!
ReplyDeleteNot quite there yet, Robin, but getting there! If this lovely weather continues, it won't be long! Once shadblow and forsythia bloom, my garden will explode!
ReplyDeleteAnd a delicious spring to you, dear Gail. Thank you, dear friend.
Thanks, Kala. Enjoy the gift:)
Thank you, Eileen. Almost but not quite there yet! If this awesome weather continues, it won't be long.
Thank you, dear Rose. How lovely. Let's savor this awesome time of year ... we have waited long for the rustle of spring!

ReplyDeleteThat quote by Helen is EXACTLY how I am. I really do dream of my garden in the winter.
ReplyDeleteLovely slideshow! Well done.
I love that last quote so much. Your video is lovely. I am especially awed by the beautiful blues.
ReplyDeletegreat quote on spring time energy...so true.
ReplyDeleteLove the video Joey! All the flowers are gorgeous, especially the Trilliums, and the Magnolia blossoms! Although, my personal favorite...the dandelion, but that's because the bees seem to love them here, and we usually have no shortage of them ;)
ReplyDeleteLovely thoughts and video... you have almost the same blooms as I do right now. It's a beautiful time of year... my favorite. I love watching new life. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Roni, and thank you. It's fun to connect. FYI ~ Much older than you, I am the ORIGINAL 'Ho-Hum Housewife' but don't mind sharing the title :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rosey. In the dirt for the first time this weekend, my spirits are soaring!
Energized here, DGD! Hope you are too :)
I love spring blues too, Tina. Thank you, fun friend. Happy April :)
Thanks dear Clare. All above is waiting to happen ... forsythia/shadblow still swelling and then ... BANG ... all is about to BURST!
Spring is the best, Jewel! Happy garden thoughts and wishes for a stunning spring.
ReplyDeleteJoey, I know everyone else has said "lovely," but I add my voice to the rest. What a beautiful tribute to spring my friend. I'm so glad it found you.~~Dee
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Dee. I'm honored. We enjoy so many of the same things ... and though spring is lovely, you are a 'year-round' gift!
ReplyDeleteJoey, All my favorite flowers accompanied by beautiful music--what a treat. Carolyn
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Carolyn ... a 'shade garden Queen'! It's been a joy connecting :)
