I never cease to be amazed at the glories of Spring. from seemingly dead plants and trees, wonderful lime green shoots erupt to become new foliage and beautiful blooms burst forth as the temperature starts to rise. Wisteria and Jacaranda spring to mind as two that generally flower before the leaves arrive.
I captured these snaps of Hippeastrums (Barbadoes Lilies) in bud, and a week later in bloom, how glorious they are, something so stunning from such unlikely stalks.
This wonderful season of the year is full of surprises as one moves around the suburbs.
Clusters of these lilies in blood red hues often hidden up against fences and nestled in garden beds, just delightful. The Jacaranda trees at the bottom of our street are beginning to flower, I can't wait, they are one of my favourites.
Blessings abound if we keep our eyes open.
Watch out for Spring surprises.
