Most of them are gone now and I am happy to see them once in a year. Daffodil is the common name of the Narcissus flowering plant. They are bulbous plants and are winter hard. They always bloom flowers every spring time. It feels like a therapy for my body and spirit everytime I see them blooming in our garden. Truly such a beauty of nature!

| These daffodils are from our garden and was captured last April 2012. |
All Narcissus species have a central bell-, bowl-, or disc-shaped corona surrounded by a ring of six floral leaves called the perianth which is united into a tube at the forward edge of the 3-locular ovary. The seeds are black, round and swollen with a hard coat. The three outer segments are sepals, and the three inner segments are petals. Though the traditional daffodil of folklore, poetry, and field may have a yellow to golden-yellow color all over, both in the wild species and due to breeding, the perianth and corona may be variously colored. Breeders have developed some daffodils with double, triple, or ambiguously multiple rows and layers of segments, and several wild species also have known double variants. wikipedia

Spring time is truly garden time for me but sad to say, it is still very cold outside. I went this morning in our garden to check some flowers and I am happy to see that a lot of tulips and other flowers are already blooming. I want to do a bit cleaning and planting but decided not to staty too long because it breeze is still cold. I don’t want to get sick only for this reason. I can wait until the weather will be nicer and friendlier in the coming days or weeks.
Spring time is just one of my favorite seasons of the year! Here are some of the few blooms from our garden.
these tulips always love to come back every year. I already have this for seven years in our garden.
the daffodils are slowly getting weakened. These are the first ones that bloomed in our garden since almost three weeks ago.
I love the color of this viola flowers. It is one of my favorite colors. They are also blooming now. Other colors such as yellow, red and orange are also in our garden.

I already read a lot of Easter greetings from my friends in facebook especially the ones from Asia. If you are a Christian, you surely know what is Easter. For those who don’t know it, Easter is a feast celebrating resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after his crucifixion at Calvary as described in the New Testament.
Here is a bundle of lovely and beautiful roses for all of you!

Spring time is finally here! The calendar in front of me says that spring in Germany officially starts on March 20 this year. I went outside our garden today to look for the first blooms of the flowers. I already saw a lot. One of it are the tulip flowers. Hyacinths, violas and the little white wild flowers are also blooming. It makes me happy again to see the beauty of nature in our garden. I love it!

I am quite familiar with these flowers because our neighbor before had a lot of these in her garden. I also had a schoolmate whose name is Daisy. Thats is why this flower is known to me. It belongs to the family of Asteraceae or Compositae, commonly referred to as daisy, aster or sunflower family. It is said to be one of the most largest flowering plant families in the world.
I planted these flowers in our garden before but it is not coming back after winter. There are wild ones that I can see in our garden flowering at the moment. Spring time is here and I already see a lot of them.
Daisy roots are usually taproots, and sometimes fibrous. Stems are generally erect, but sometimes prostrate to ascending. Some species have underground stems in the form of caudices or rhizomes, these can be fleshy or woody depending on the species. Daisy roots are usually taproots, and sometimes fibrous.

I am slowly feeling the spring air. I heard today over the radio weather forecast that the temperature in our area will be milder. They also mentioned that on Thursday, we will have up to 18 degrees Celsius temperature. Spring is almost coming. This is the time of the year where the tulips, narcissus or daffodils will start to grow and bloom in our garden.
Sad to say, I can’t see the process of blooming of these flowers because I will be away for a 6-weeks trip to Spain starting March 11, 2012. I believed I will see some of the flowers when I come back in April. If not, I will also see some of these flowers in Spain.
Here are some of the narcissus or daffodils from our garden. This was taken last spring 2011.
You can also see the white flowers of our cherry tree. I can’t see it again this year because we already cut this tree. In its area stands now our terrace and carport. The narcissus were also replanted in the other areas of our garden.

Tulips are coming soon. Spring season is the time of the year where tulip flowers first bloom. I a hundred in our garden. The one you see below is the so-called Geflammte Tulpen of flamed tulips in English. Isn’t it a lovely one? I love tulips because it always reminds me of a new beginning…the new beginning of life everytime it blooms.

The tulip is a perennial, bulbous plant with showy flowers in the genus Tulipa and belongs to the family Liliaceae.

Busy…busy..busy..February is quite a busy month for me. Despite of that I am very thankful that I was able to accomplish some things. Thanks God for all the blessings also. I am offering you these wonderful flowers called Hydrangea or Hortensia. Back home in the Philippines, we call it million flowers due to its many petals.
Hydrangea flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads (corymbs or panicles) at the ends of the stems. In many species, the flowerheads contain two types of flowers, small fertile flowers in the middle of the flowerhead, and large, sterile bract-like flowers in a ring around the edge of each flowerhead. Other species have all the flowers sterile and of the same size.

This is just a part of our garden. For now you cannot see any flowers outside because it is winter season. When spring comes, I know I will be seeing again some flowers especially the tulips. I planted more last autumn time and can’t wait to see it. Our garden will also have a new look this year because we did some changes in it.
You can here some roses, cosmos, gumamela or hibiscus, poppy peridot, gladiola, lavender and many many more.
