The signs are in the air - there’s been a distinct change of the smell; lots of flowers are blooming. A parade of displays has begun.

Poppies are my favorite! What beautiful photos!
Wow. There’s still snow on the hills here in Colorado. Those are pretty.
You should try to go out to Anza Borrego. The flowers must be in full bloom right now. It is a spectacular sight. I went there a few years ago with some friends.

Yeah, I don’t know why I stick around here either. Pretty poppies!
Yesterday in Boulder, CO we had t-shirt weather, today there is a couple of inches of snow on the grass from overnight snow. I believe that this is typical for Boulder at this time of year, so Spring has sprung here, as well…. Gorgeous photos!
Breathtaking photos! I wonder if it is okay in the US to grow poppy, unsupervised. It is not allowed in India.
