First day of spring (hurrah, the Vernal Equinox has arrived)

It's official: Spring has arrived. But to be honest (and don't hate me), this year Spring arrived on the balcony in mid-February.

I've been a busy dietitian so although I did manage to get some seeds sown, I haven't had time to blog about the garden. Here's a quick catch-up post, featuring the early bloomers during the past few weeks:

Iris reticulata, February 16, 2013

Galanthus nivalis (Snowdrops), March 9, 2013

Crocus chrysanthus (Snow Crocus), March 9, 2013
