Crocus
The crocuses have been up for a while and I’ve been meaning to go out and get a photo or two. Today I actually managed to do it, probably not a bit too soon. They are starting to fade a but, although the color is still pretty good on this purple flower. It’s lying on its side, though, so it’s not what it was. I really love the combination of the bright orange stigma against the deep purple petals of this crocus flower. I also have white crocuses, which are also in bloom right next to the purple. They are coming up through Vinca minor (periwinkle), which is also starting to bloom.
