Pansies Say Spring

Downtown Pittsburgh. There are barrels along the sidewalk, filled with daffodils and pansies. Pansies. They don’t seem to mind the chilly temps this evening. I love the velvet petal faces.

Pansies

It really felt like a true Spring day!

The pansy gets its name from the French word pensée meaning ‘thought’.”

-quote from Pansyflowers.com

The forsythia is in bloom

and there are violets and crocus,
the daffodils.   All those bulbs people
planted last fall are up.
Buds on some of the trees.
Pansies look
like Spring to me.
