At eye level with crocuses

Long time no see, long time no hear, dear blog friends!

Today I want to report back to you with some harbingers of spring which have been really flourishing for more than one month already here in the south of Germany.

These crocusses I took last Saturday in the Botanical Garden of the Wuerzburg University where you can find more than just one species of crocuses and other early flowering plants.

Next to these purple beauties I found a spot with some goldish yellow crocuses as well.

But honestly I must say the purple species are my favourites.

Good bye February - welcome March!
