23-Winter/Spring

It's been exceptionally warm this year so Spring flowers are
approximately 3 weeks early. Today we've had a "late winter"
snow storm. The latest I've seen snow is May 7-8, 1989 when
we had a little over 10". Today's storm was around 5".

Poor tulips, but still in good shape somehow. Nice photo.

The daffs and tulips always seem to suffer but hopefully it will melt and allow them to flourish.

The tulips look so pretty against the white.

tulips are strong flowers, they will survive the cold attack, you can see it how they bend to the bad weather
great capture Brenda

Oh no - not snow. We're having quite a warm autumn so far. Only just thinking about putting on a jumper now and then.

Beautiful shot, I hope those tulips are strong enough to resist that late snow!

Very nice, a little shock this morning. No snow at 3:00am and about 3" at 5:00am.

They're bowed but not down for the count. Great contrast between the colorful flowers and the cold snow. V.

Oh dear, I saw several postings with snow today. I feel for those in the Northeast U.S. My folks in Pennsylvania got 6". I like your photo with the contrasting spring/winter!
