I love flowers -- and I love spring. This is my second visit to the bulb show, and I can't even begin to tell you how happy it makes me -- so much beauty and hope compacted into that small space (especially after a winter like this one). Today, during a walk around the yard (which is almost possible, with the melting and thawing), I discovered a few fresh shoots poking up out of the ground. Not yet sure what they'll turn into, but I can't wait to see.
If you've never been to the Conservatory, I highly recommend it -- even outside of the special spring and fall shows. There is a large variety of amazing plants organized into different collections. More on the Lyman on a later post.
In the meantime, get to Smith for the bulb show. Hours are 10-4 daily, 6-8 next Friday (March 18). A donation of $2 is suggested at the door. Go during the day or go at night -- just make sure to get there!
Mt Holyoke College also has a spring flower show going on.

Ooooh I'm jealous! Note to self - go SOON! Last year I made it on the last day and the beautiful flowers were on their last root.
Definitely go -- it's well worth it! So beautiful~
I return to this post to warm up and feel spring. Thanks.
