Crocuses or Croci ?

One the vernacular, one is proper Latin terms according to the article in Gardens Illustrated

But look at this field of plural crocus! My sister visited the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Sunday afternoon and she sent me some photos that featured signs of Spring.

  1. Last week the Daffodils were blooming in the yards on our street and this week many other little plants with lots of different colors are blooming. So pretty!

  2. Wow, spring is abloom in that carpet of crocuses. My tulips and iris are poking through, way too early here in southern Minnesota, during this mostly snowless winter.

    Yesterday brought a wildfire within two miles of my sister’s rural home. More than 1,000 acres of mostly farm land and swampland have burned with some homeowners needing to evacuate. As of last evening, the fire was still burning out of control.

  3. Ahhhh, The first signs of spring. Time to start waking up and letting that sun shine down. 🙂
