Thirty Eight Degrees And The Sun Is Out

Tulips love Northern Michigan's weather.

The crisp mornings are the equivalent of a florists' reach in. 

The coolness keeps them in full color for up to three weeks!

Their unique colors are like stained glass.

When the sun shines the blooms open up and just glow.

Every fall I just plant a dozen more here and there.

Among the Woodruff and the Ferns they raise their pretty heads. 

Catching your eye from across the lawn.

Can't help it. I love spring in the woods. Every morning a new plant grows up from the thick bed of fall leaves.  The greens, yellows and reds so vibrant against the brown. Makes you kinda forget that it is darn chilly out!!

Have a fun weekend!
