Crocuses add color to a pandemic-stressed life

This is the season that pleases me almost more than any other, and that is because of the magic of flowers and buds. The giant crocuses are my first flowers to bloom, and the primary stump garden is ringed with them.  As you can sort of see, I also have white crocuses, deep purple crocuses, light purple crocuses, and deep yellow crocuses.

Here is one close-up of the striped purple crocuses.
