Day 61 #365days #firstflowers #resilience These old orchids keep showing up with their beauty even after the trauma of being dropped and neglected at times. Thank you. I will try to be better for you. 🌺

A bright yellow daffodil pops out of some Sidcup mulch, surrounded by smaller yellow and blue bulb flowers
Some pale yellow nearly trumpet-shaped flowers and a single unfurling green leaf grow from the ends of an otherwise bare haskap (also known as honeyberry) branch
Clusters of buds swell into round green incipient flowers on a plum branch
Small, still tightly-closed apple blossom buds inside a corona of brand new leaves grow from spurs on an apple tree branch
Today's flowers and incipient flowers: daffodil, haskap, plum, apple. 🌱

Snowdrops. A close view of a cluster of grey green slightly fleshy narrow grassy leaves emerge from between stones- generally smooth glacial till of variously coloured weathered quartzite and granite, a larger dully pinkish quartzite at the back. With a couple of open flowers, one partly upturned, uncharacteristically, so we see inside the drooping white sepals (?) to the green rimmed bell inside. More buds on the way.
Here are the first garden flowers of the year- 1st snowdrops from yesterday; 1st couple of Drabas also opened + I saw first crocus this morning, no photo yet. In the wild just poplars and willows so far. 🌱📷

I watched for the first #Daphne blooms this spring--but I fear the plant has retired---they do that!! A bush has a lifespan--but sometimes it leaves a shoot to regenerate into a new bush---how I hope!! The scent of these is divine!!!!

Looking up through/at the tops of a handful of aspens and several spruce trees. The aspen trunks are near white with some to many dark to black branch scar markings.There are some dead branches holding on, and live branches are mostly high up. the trunks are partly in their own or other trees' shade, and partly catching the afternoon sun coming from the left. The spruce trees are showing medium/dark green, with parts darker in shade. The tips of the aspen twigs bear numerous fuzzy catkins, mostly not fully extended, but catching the sun in their silvery hairs giving the tree tops a delicately fuzzy/hazy look. The sky behind the trees is a clear blue.
A tangle of palest green twigs and branches with dark markings against a blue sky. From twig tips hang clusters of aspen catkins. Emerging from shiny brown bud cases, they start as silver brushes, extending to silver/pewter dangling caterpillars with red buds showing through the hairs, then extending further and paling as the reddish tiny buds open to show miniscule golden flowers casting their pollen to wind. Those hanging in front in this view are fully extended and wind blown slightly sideways.
A cluster of catkins against a pale and grey blurred background of twigs and trunks hangs from a knobby pale dark marked twig. Emerging from shiny brown bud cases, they start as silver brushes, extending to silver/pewter dangling caterpillars with red buds showing through the hairs, then extending further and paling as the reddish tiny buds open to show miniscule golden flowers casting their pollen to wind. These are half to not quite fully extended.
Sunshine lights several clusters of dangling catkins cross the screen at an angle from upper left to lower right, above a knobby pale dark marked thin branch, with a tangle of of other pale blurred branches and trunks in the background, blue sky showing through. Emerging from shiny brown bud cases, they start as silver brushes, extending to silver/pewter dangling caterpillars with red buds showing throught the hairs, then extending further and paling as the reddish tiny buds open to show miniscule golden flowers casting their pollen to wind.
#FirstFlowers this year: Aspens Populus tremuloides starting to fully open their catkins (willows just behind, a few open). They are tiny, but there're millions! Officially wind pollinated, but they do draw insects.

Art watercolor
How I could imagine to see such blooming beauty outside? Couldn’t resist to draw. It gives a hope for a spring.
P.S. Temperature (C/F) night: -9/15.8, day: 0/32.
