Good morning GTers! It's nice to see a #crocus or two emerge from beneath the melting snow isn't it? Have a marvellous Monday everyone! 😀 #blue #purple

Such a wonderful sight👍

Morning Ian, it sure is and that’s a beauty! Most of mine are now horizontal! 🙈

@suerichards - Aren't they Sue? 😀

@rachelbrooks - Morning Rachel! Thanks! Yeah, mine too! The odd trooper is hanging on in there though! 😀

Beautiful 💜

Good afternoon all! Not sure where this lonely #purple #crocus came from but it looks like he's just in time for the #tuesdaychoice #purpleblooms challenge! It has been an awful day here, hope it has been better where you are! 😀

Afternoon Ian, I love this one, they positively gleam like satin 💜💜. The weather is no better here, miserable, miserable miserable.

@pelly - Afternoon Jane! Great description - just like satin! Hope the weather perks up for you! 😀

Thanks Ian, and no the weather is still miserable!! ☔☔

Fabulous colour, Ian. I hope you have a better day tomorrow 🤞 @bigemrg

Such a deep rich color😍. Great pic Ian👍🏼

@jacaranda - Isn't it Barbara? Think it's going to get better by Thursday! 😀

Good morning GTers! Thought we were going to escape the rain yesterday, but no! At least there was a short period of sunshine allowing the first of the #crocus to open! Have a marvellous Monday everyone! 😀

Good morning GTers! I was excited to see the first signs of spring at the weekend as this little #crocus had decided to push its way through dad's lawn! Have a terrific Tuesday everyone! 😀

Morning Ian lovely colour that's going to be 💜💜

@Keely - Morning Keely! Yes, it turns a deep purple which contrasts nicely with the yellow interior! 😀

Morning again Ian @bigemrg love to see crocuses appear Spring is on it’s way Yay. Hope you have a lovely day Ian still haven’t caught this tail yet 😂

@jadojado29 - Yes, it's always good to see the crocuses return! Good luck with the chase! 😀

Morning Ian took a photo of my first one yesterday 👌🏻💜

@nessas - Morning Vanessa! Hopefully they'll have a few of their friends around soon! 😀

Lovely! I haven’t even checked my Crocus - I wonder if I have any out yet? Most of mine opened around late Feb March last year I think.

@richard.spicer.7906 - This one is in a sheltered spot and is definitely a front runner in dad's garden! That's about the time when most of mine were open last year! No need to worry yet! 😀

A collection of #crocus basking in the spring sunshine a few years ago... Heavy frost here this morning! Hope my seeds are keeping warm enough in their grow house!

Very pretty @bigemrg :)

@flof1952 - I agree! They look a happy bunch too! 😊

@latebloomer - Got a surprise when I got home from visiting dad today - some of the Zinnia and Stock seeds had already germinated! 😄

@latebloomer - No, they're in modules sat on watering mat to keep the compost moist! Only sowed them last Tuesday! 😄
