Friday Flower Blogging

I shouldn't be having to resort to petunias at the beginning of March, but the effects of the January cold snap are still with us. I was wandering around today and my eyes kept playing tricks on me, seeing flowers where there was only paint glinting through bare branches. There are buds on the orange trees, at least, and maybe there will be blossom in a while, if we don't have another frost.
