February has arrived. The days are getting longer, and there is a promise of spring in the air!! Nature is showing us that renewal is on the way! 😀
This is a wonderful time of the year to go for a walk – be patient and observe, and you’ll be richly rewarded!
The almond trees have started to flower:
The mimosa trees are producing an absolutely glorious amount of bright yellow fluffy blossoms:
The red flowers of the red Japanese quince bush provide a jewel-like cheerful spot of colour
In some vineyards, the ground between the rows of plants is carpeted with wildflowers:
All these sights gladden my heart and lift my spirits!! I hope they lift your spirits too!!
Mimosa = Spring is just around the corner

It is just crazy, no? It’s so early for these blooms. I’m loving the nice weather, but worried about why it’s happening now.

I’m not sure that these blooms are too early – I’ve often seen almond trees in flower this time of year or earlier, and there’s a mimosa tree in Beziers which usually starts flowering mid January. The weather patterns are definitely changing though…
