Goodbye winter, hello spring! 🌱

I'm never quite sure where my topics fit here, so I'll try this one. 👍 I am so excited spring is here and the sun, warmth, and green returns to us! So stinking excited! I have so many plans and so many plants to plant........ but, as I was going through my pictures I came across the beautiful winter ones taken on my land. I thought it was a good way to honor the end of the season of winter and be reminded of its absolute beauty. It can definitely be a harsh time of year in all aspects, but there isn't much more pure than a fresh blanket of white covering all things. 🥰

Post yours if you have some! Goodbye winter 👋, hello spring 🤗.

Gorgeous photos--snow-covered trees really are the most beautiful sight in winter to me. Where I live we only get a day or two of that prettiness, but I sit by the window and sip hot chocolate to drink it all in!

howdy,

I'm getting excited too - sown my first seeds outside!

Sorry but… Spring just takes my breath away!

I don't know....It was t-shirt warm the day before, snowing and freezing today.

Awesome photos everyone, thanks, love it!

In my world March is a two-faced friend. One minute, warm and friendly. The next, a giant arctic vortex that will kill anything that moves.

We have a saying about March -- if it comes in like a lion, it goes out like a lamb. It certainly came in like a cranky lion this year. Hoping for the lamb, but I'm not holding my breath.

One of the first native flowering shrubs in wy area. I knew the species name in the past, but I have forgotten it.

I'm with Douglas...March is home of the vernal equinox, but it generally doesn't feel like spring.  That said, the days are longer, the temperatures are trending warmer, and one can really feel the strengthening energy of the sun's rays in our part of the world.

We've had some warm weather of late, but it's cooled again, making for some treacherous walking conditions.  Most of the sidewalks are relatively clear here in the city, so I leave my Icer's at home (the concrete really wears down the studs), but there are spots where I really wish I had them.

Here's a couple of harbingers on the Assiniboine River in Winnipeg this morning on the walk with the standard poodle.

We had quite a few weeks of spring weather but we are going back to winter tonight!

I love to hike through scenery like that, but I agree. Bring on spring. It's time!

Not much of a winter here in NH.  But pretty.

I love seeing the Redbuds peeking out of the small forests have here!  That is my signal to buy my seeds!  I have some new comfrey root;  collard, sweet pea, borage, celery lovage, stinging nettle, wild everglades tomato, mullein, chamomile and ashwaganda seeds!  These are going into my new hugel!
