It feels like Spring around here

This weeks theme is Skinny
The weather’s been fairly nice hear in Toronto over the last week or so. We had a bit of a warm spell. Of course this was right after a major freeze so it was quite welcome!
The weathers been warm enough that on some days it felt downright spring like! So I guess it’s only fitting that I decided to post a photo of a lovely spring flower called Chionodoxa.
You can purchase Chionodoxa in most stores that sell spring bulbs. They come in white, pink and blue. Of course the blue – as seen above – is really more of a pale purple or mauve.
These flowers bloom in the late spring in clusters. I love seeing their masses of skinny petaled blooms each year. I think the flowers last about three weeks before the flowers and the plant begin to die down as the heat of summer begins to arrive.
