It amazes me how much difference one week of warm temperatures can make! On Monday none of these flowers were in bloom, just tight compact heads.
Today is a different story. My island is a riot of yellow with the daffodils saying their farewell and now the tulips [mostly yellow shades] are all in bloom. I love the way the sun plays on their translucent petals.
I've also been patiently waiting for my apple tree to bloom. I just love the look of apple blossoms and I love the apples in the fall even more.
And there is always my very favorite spring flower- lilacs. I love the smell, I love the memories...

You are a very talented photographer!! I wish I had your skills.
What a lovely set of images! I love the sun shining through the tulips in the first picture.
Oh wow! Such a profusion of color compared to last week. It boggles my mind. I can almost smell the lilacs through the computer screen.
Love,
Cindy
Joanie...YOU are amazing. I watch the early news when I'm on the dreadmill in the morning. They show photos that people have sent to them of various outdoor scenes. You could be a regular! And those gorgeous yellow tulips...looks like dessert to me!
Joan Lewis, I absolutely love reading your blogs. Your pictures are just soooo Amazing. You definetly bring a ray of sunshine in my day when I get a email that says you have written or taken photos of another blog. I dont know if you ever go to mine. It is definelty not as interesting as yours, but I do have photos of people you may recognize. Take Care. Your old Palmdale 2nd ward youth...haha Erika Mortimer-Graham
Yes, Joanie, the flowers are gorgeous!! I love the way you capture them.
I love my tulips and grape hyacinths. Perhaps I will even get lilacs this year, although the only one I planted that survived is white. I will love it. I hope it has perfume!
Thanks for bringing Spring to spring!
Love ya, Annie
