Blossom

Yesterday turned out to be one of those glorious days. After weeks of rain and bad weather finally a sunny day. The warmth and beauty strong of these blooming bulbs is enough to enlighten its surroundings.
Spring is coming...

Bonjour Federica,
Yes Spring is on its way...eventually. The bulbs are so beautiful. Today in PAris we're having a storm, rain and lots of strong wind - I need to head to Italy!

I love hyacinths and wished I had thought to force some. It would've made this awful winter a bit more pleasant.

Your basil also looks wonderful, a little different from our varieties but very lush!

It's raining here and will be all week but that's ok because we really need the rain. I love the sunshine after lots of rain as everything feels so fresh.

The colouring in these photos is lovely and soft.
