While this doesn't look much like a bloom at first glance this rock is covered with blooming moss. I just love to discover the moss in early spring with their limey green blooms going on the rock. It is looking very Irish wouldn't you say??
A new bloom for this month is also a new bloom for my garden ever. This is a Hellebore that is a passalong plant and I don't know what kind it is. It is different than any others in my garden. The bloom stalk is tall and the blooms are a pinkish color and hang straight down. This bloom stalk seemed to come from nowhere except for the fact I knew there were helebores planted here. I was so happy it decided to make a show this month at bloom day.
I had to hold its little face up to take a picture of it. It sure is a pretty blush of color.
The only daffodils that I have blooming right now are the minatures. They are in clumps scattered all around the garden. They may be the smallest but they are the bravest as they pop up first and are the first daffodils to bloom every year.
One of my favorites is really putting on a show this spring. Pussy Willow. It is just full of these beautiful little catkins. I can hardly keep my hands off of them.
The other flowers blooming in my garden I posted a week ago. You can see them
here. To see blooms from other gardens located all over the world go to
Carol's May Dreams Gardens. Carol is the one that started this fun mid month show of blooms. If you want to join in making this bouquet even larger post your pictures then go to May Dreams Gardens and leave your address on Mr Linky and/or a comment for Carol.

I know these little brown lumps don't mean much to some of you but to me they are promises of the tall green Ostrich ferns that inhabit this area of the garden.
The closer to time to go to work the darker the sky. It rained this entire day. The tips of the Magnolia are all budded out. I am afraid that they will all be frozen off soon. I know this record warmth won't last long. Until the cold returns I am enjoying the promises of spring.
