Crocuses the Breath of Spring

I can feel spring is slowly coming. This time of year usually brings vibrant colors and is my favorite time of year. Reborn after long winter.

I was looking around for positive vibes and colors, because winter is getting boring and moody.


I looked and found close to me, in the garden, in the parks and in the city where I live, there are actually a lot of spring color palettes.

I completely forgot that in October I planted bulbs of many spring flowers that have just started to bloom and arouse my admiration.


Last weekend, in front of my garden, I saw dark purple crocuses hidden among the bushes, which suddenly began to bloom. The front garden slowly becomes a kaleidoscope of colors, mostly with crocuses and miniature yellow daffodils.

Crocuses are typical spring flowers in a rich palette of colors from blue, white, yellow and purple with different color variants of petals. They bloom when the snow begins to melt.

They look most beautiful under trees or on the lawn or in the vicinity of snowdrops or roots.


These grassy leaves and spectacular, six-petalled flowers in the shape of a cup make a great impression on almost everyone who meets them.

I can't take my eyes off these flowers with purple veins and yellow throat that seek the sun's rays and lean towards them as if they want to warm their petals in their rays.
