Texas wildflowers bloom
Wildflowers bloom for only a few weeks every year in Texas, which makes everyone appreciate the pleasant, fleeting colors. City folk commonly encounter wildflowers along the untamed stretches of grass that flank highways, like this area a short distance from our home along Interstate 35. There are many different types of Texas wildflowers, but I believe the yellow ones pictured above are Black-eyed Susans. Click on the image for a closer look.
The official state flower of Texas is the Bluebonnet (below), a beautiful blossom that also makes for a fine tattoo.

In Edinburgh crocuses and daffodils are everywhere and Arthur's Seat (a small mountain in the middle of town) is covered in these thorny bushes with yellow flowers. Am missing the hanami time in Vancouver and it's killing me. Spring = Very Yes
Sounds beautiful Mander! I love daffodils especially.
