Blooming

 The azaleas are really making their presence known!
 Even the bees are coming out to enjoy them!
 This is under my magnolia tree, coming up the driveway.
 The bromiliad clump is in bloom, too.  (Bill suspended it in the old bark of a palm tree-they don't need soil, only water!)
The dogwood is beginning to lose its bloom as the leaves come out.
It is looking like Spring on the inside, too; the orchid is doing its thing-the blooms are larger and hardier looking this year-the plant is larger so maybe that is why.  I love to wake up to these blooms!

    I can hardly wait for our spring flowers to do their thing. I did not know that Bromliads only needed soil. That is very interesting!
