Can you tell what it is yet?

The crocuses are coming up, but not evenly. I seem to have all the yellow ones up first although a few blue ones are starting to show.

The pole sticking up is the washing line, which was unavoidable when making an eight-foot crocus circle in a small lawn. The shape they're making isn't too clear.

Here's a different angle in monochrome. Can you see it yet? I expected it to be in full flower by now but they're not even all up so far.

I know, there are more important things going on in the world. I'll get to them tomorrow. I've spent the whole day in the garden because of a burst of rare non-wet and non-windy weather. If it could add in non-freezing, that would be great but let's not get too picky. It's only March.

So I am relaxed and plan to stay that way for a few hours yet. At least until Uncle Gadfly starts retaliating.

He'd better not bomb my crocuses. I've waited months for this.
