Crocus

Spring comes early in western Oregon!

The first crocus are blooming down at the Bethel Community Park parking lot.

My favorite are the purple striped flowers. They're a sweet reminder of the garden near my front porch in Idaho. 

I'm feeling nostalgic. I don't imagine those blubs will bloom for another month (or two). This photo is from my Idaho garden in mid-March 2018.

And this from April 2012.
