Spring flowers

[Wild-Woman]

What spring flowers are most looking forward to seeing?

I'll be pleased to see violets.

Daffodils. I know they are common as muck, but they just make you happy.

Ramsons as I don't have any photographic records of this plants yet, and some viola species I have not tracked down yet! Also awaiting the return of the cuckooflower (Cardamine pratensis) that grows right next to my pond!Waiting till about April to take a trip to my local woods in Northamptonshire to see the bluebell carpets yet again. But to be honest I am eagerly awaiting any spring forb!

Celandine a plant thats forgotten for most of the year then the leaves appear even now there is a patch of green here and there in my garden.

Then later on you get that much needed punch of bright yellow from hundreds of happy little faces to wipe away the memories of the snow.

Once flowered its not long before the leaves go to be forgotten until next spring

PS. I could of said snowdrops but I have had enough of white and the word snow

Primroses.

I am already seeing the odd brave flower - Dandelion, Wavy Bittercress and Groundsel.

The Daffodils around Yeovil are starting to bloom too - a full 5 weeks later than in the previous two years.

Indeed, I'm with you on these two. Roll on spring.

Butterbur colonies on the riverbanks . Really nice & good for early nectar, then you get the v large 'cabbage' in the High Summer onwards.

I really love to see Coltsfoot. Might be boring to some, but I likes it.
