Making My Own Spring.....


The calendar says spring is in two weeks but outside it still looks like the dead of winter and it'll be a while before all that snow melts. I decided to create my own spring; last November I planted tulip bulbs in a pot and put them in the refrigerator, in early February I took them out and put the pot by the window and this week they started to bloom. The photo posted today is a close up I took yesterday, it's nice to see some color. Along with this yellow there are some purple ones, I may take some more photos this weekend.

Works for me! Beautiful! I saw the first shoots coming up in my garden this morning, John, so maybe you're not far behind.
