It's spring!

If it's not spring don't tell me, or my flowers. We're content in our delusion. I'm hoping some of the apricots survived the low 20 degree temperatures of a couple of nights ago. Some of the blossoms are brownish, but you can't tell from this photo.


At least the redbud is being cautious about blooming.


There are tons of flowers blooming that I don't know the names of, unfortunately. Here's one I thought was a Dutchman's Breeches, but realize it's not. They're about the same size though.


Here's a teensy cactus that  I almost stepped on. I finally ID'd it as a Golf Ball Cactus (mammillaria lasiacantha), Apparently it's a common cactus but I've never seen it bloom before.
