Pussy Willow

Pussy willows are a fun plant in the spring, with their soft fuzzy catkins. My grandson discovered them on a trip to the zoo, so I ordered a pair one for him and one for me!. The bare root plants came yesterday, so they are heeled in in pots for the moment. the pussy willow and tulip in the mandala were at the Denver Botanic Gardens in an arrangement at the front door the beginning of May.

Simplicity - just tulips.

Another spring flower the tulip. The Denver Botanic Gardens was full of tulips with the sun shining through the colorful petals. I liked the shadows at the center of this mandala.

Spring Flowers

The purple tulips caught my attention and the white hanging flower completed the scene, waveing like a banner.  I love spring flowers after a winter with nothing, the plants are busting out in flower now.
